    Tripoli and BALLS 31: Great job!

    Hey that’s mine! It was my L3 cert on an M1650 LC

    Highperion - My attempt to break the Tripoli H altitude record

    I’ve never lost a rocket that used a radio beacon for tracking. I believe I’ve had rockets in almost every situation imaginable with a radio beacon and I’ve found them all. From buried 2ft underground, to behind a mountain 5 miles away, to behind snow drifts several miles out on a frozen lake...

    Project MESOS. A two-stage flight to 293,488 ft!

    Not according to the FAA. Tripoli just makes you go through their C3RC to review it if you plan to fly at a Tripoli event.

    Its weird with the long 54s, a lot of people report forward closure issues, but the two K300s I bought both failed at the nozzle end. I’ve flown other long 54s in the past with no issues, but looking at user reports here and on motorcato.org had me returning the K1440 I got a couple years ago...

    StratoSpear: 38mm 3-stage for complex L record attempt

    This is a really cool option. I'm going to have to get a couple of these to play around with that

    AeroTech Open Thread

    The I1299 is one of my all time favorite loads. I would love to see more options of Warp-9 since the stupid amounts of thrust coupled with the short burn time really ups the 'giggle factor' of a flight. I also like the challenge of making the smallest possible rocket for something with really...

    L Padre - A minimum diameter Big Daddy

    @UPscaler got a great video of L Padre’s flight at 5:14 in his LDRS video series.

    The 2022 Newton Tally Thread

    Looked at the motors I had burned this year, and the total impulse I listed and realized I had missed something somewhere. To recap: EX K motor (~1550Ns), I1299, K550, M1830, L910, L1000, and L850. ...... S-Motor ............................ 327680.0 Ns ...

    The 2022 Newton Tally Thread

    Ok its been a bit for me. I haven't updated anything in a while, but I did get busy flying. In April I flew a K550, I1299, and attempted L3 with an M1830 (rocket went missing). Now at LDRS I flew an L910, L1000, and L850. ...... S-Motor ............................ 327680.0 Ns ...... R-Motor...

    Wildman Motor Eater L3 build

    First bit of the burn looked good. Didn't last much longer though

    L Padre - A minimum diameter Big Daddy

    13,400 according to the on board easy mini. Great shape isn’t how I would describe its current condition. Two of the fins are loose, only the tip to tip holding them on. But as I said, one flight with it is enough for me. It was a fun idea and one I’m very satisfied with the outcome.

    L Padre - A minimum diameter Big Daddy

    UPDATE: L Padre has flown! Friday morning here at LDRS. L Padre took to the skies on a CTI L910. It took off out of the tower with as straight a boost as I could ask for. Unfortunately it did suffer some landing damage to the fillets, but I only intended it to fly once so I'm calling it a...

    CTI Discussion Thread

    Is it possible to get the throat diameter for a K300? I'm curious to see if an out of spec throat diameter could be the cause of the two cato's I've had

    Yet another 38mm min diameter rocket

    What if I told you, none of these were painted. So by your logic, the chance of cato should be 0. But yet all of my HPR catos have been on rocket with no paint whatsoever. ;)
