    Do you mean "votes"? I don't see an "in" I'm confused; "hits" I understand as visitors, "votes" are self evident. So what's the difference between "hits" and "out" ? Patrick

    OH MAN! Works for me. The Rebar Rocketry banner (#7) is a gut buster... Very creative. What does "out" represent in the statistics column? Patrick

    18 mm & 24 mm RMS - How practical?

    Easy solution for copperheads: Carefully take a lighter, you know-the kind smokers use, and GENTLY heat the end you attach the nasty AT adapter to until the two copper layers separate. There is a dielectric insulation between them that can melt, so be a little careful. Standard alligator...

    New project... Plenty of questions...

    My recommendation? 38mm and toss her up on a J330. But that's just me ;) Patrick

    An E in Estes Dude?

    If only that thin skin could handle the pressure... Could you imagine the power from a tank that size and suitable (inert) reload? yummy I have yet to delve into hybrids, but I see the time is coming; even the smaller ones look like fun! Patrick

    An E in Estes Dude?

    Yes, works like a charm. Of course, I am semi-charmed, so YMMV :cool: Hydrogen is a VERY BAD IDEA! Has no one else done the water Hydrolysis experiment in grade school? H2 (remember it is diatomic) will easily ignite with a match. A burning ejection charge ember will set it off. Helium...

    Alien8

    Flew mine for the first time last Saturday. Used a C6-5 for a nose down deployment that turned out AOK! Next time I'll use a C6-3. After that, I have all these 18mm AT reloads to figure out what to do with :D Pic on the pad https://www.bluesrocks.org/blueskies4pics/Img_5300.jpg It's...

    An E in Estes Dude?

    I have launched it three times on E9-4s with great flights every time. The kids loved it, it's something that gets their attention. The thing just will not fly right in anything above a gentle breeze. Too light and too much surface area! Fly it on a calm day, use a six foot rod and keep...

    ATTN: Tour de Deuce Volunteers!

    The Alpha 40 project is once again moving. I flew them last month and they are on the move again. The project lost leadership and had a few other snags that have been overcome. Check out our pictures: https://www.bluesrocks.org/blueskies_3.htm At the bottom of the page. Patrick
