    NSL 2008 in Orangeburg, SC

    That would be awesome, we have 2 heavy duty pads that can be fitted with rods up to 1" and rails up to Unistrut. We are bringing one of those pads to the WinterNats with us.

    We have hybrid support. We fly Hypertek J through M hybrids, and also monotube hybrids. I am planning on flying a Contrail I-290 Sparky at the night launch, I just need to get the lighting added to a rocket. You are welcome to bring your GSE if you wish.

    L2, bummer missed it again

    My view is rebuild a 3rd time before giving it up, pick another name, forget about curses. Beef up the fins, or put in a bigger chute for softer landings. You can do it man, keep after it.

    Camping on the field has never been allowed at Super Sod in Orangeburg. Camping is available at Santee State Park, about 15 minutes east on Hwy 301, they have a standard campground and a primitive campground. Also you may be able to find a roommate to stay at the Day's Inn.

    SCIPower Orangeburg SC

    Also congrats Steve on your L3, and to have it lane right out in front of your location on the flight line was a bonus. It was great meeting all who drove in for SCIPower and great fun to meet so many rocketeers. For Freedom Launch I think we should set up the field the same as for SCIPower.

    March, SuperSod found your casing and gave it to Danny who paid them $10 for finding and returning it. Tom paid Danny $10, so you owe the club $10 for the casing.
