    Launch Controller Key Switch w/Non-Removable Key in On Position

    Centuri - Orion (KC-8 or #5068) Gallery

    I Loved the Orion since my first one back in 73, but it always seems just a little truncated to me. I started thinking about doing a "Block 2" version, inspired by the current SLS plans, and I finally got around to doing it. Since it was a derivative, and not a clone, I used different body...

    BMS is offering a re-release of the Peter Always 1/195 SaturnV

    Yeah, and the guy is a member here, but apparently only for the purpose of selling. Glad you got one, at least!

    Just opened my Boyce Saturn 1b. Assembly was somewhat quicker than I anticipated.

    BMS is offering a re-release of the Peter Always 1/195 SaturnV

    I got one from BMC, and was considering a second "just in case". Sadly, someone bought them out and now they're on Ebay for $125.00 each.

    Another Bit of Bad News for LPR

    I bought the Falcoln Heavy thinking I got the last of the old Zooch kits; now I guess I got one of the first new ones. :D

    MoreRockets.com contact phone number?

    I tried that. If I try to go to that page, I get kicked back to the login screen. You couldn't have posted the number?

    MoreRockets.com contact phone number?

    Does anyone have a contact number for MoreRockets.com? I've ordered form them in the past, and tried to do so again now that their laser cutter is fixed. Any attempt to add items to the cart kicks me out back to their login screen, no matter how many time I log in. Any attempt to email them...

    Retro Centuri Shuttle-sort of RCRG

    Go with the Quasar cone (the second one). The Quasar was my first rocket, 40-odd years ago, and I've always loved the look.

    Star Wars Spoiler thread

    Because Harrison Ford knows better than to sign an open-ended contract with Disney.

    Star Wars Spoiler thread

    Bite your tongue; J. J. Abrams is in charge now, remember? All it would take is some red matter and a Slusho.

    Star Wars Spoiler thread

    The main thing that struck me was how many billions of lives could have been saved if someone had taken out Shmi Skywalker.

    Aaarrrrrggghhh!

    Clamp the rocket, clamp a stick to the extraction tool so it has some leverage, use a bungee to put tension on it, and let it sit. Let tension and time break it free.

    Government Regulation of RC Airplanes, Drones .... and US????

    If we consider their official statement, it appears that they were perfectly fine with registration for non-AMA members; perhaps they saw the threat as a boost to membership, and it backfired. I don't think that's quite accurate. Reading the FAA interpretation statement, I agree that they...

    Government Regulation of RC Airplanes, Drones .... and US????

    I think that the FAA saw what happened with cell phones, and doesn't want to drop the ball. Personal technology is advancing so rapidly that, in a very short space of time, devices that were once limited to a specialty market became ubiquitous. Texting while driving went from science fiction...

    Government Regulation of RC Airplanes, Drones .... and US????

    To be fair, it wasn't long ago that they did precisely that when they removed the ATC notification requirement for mid-power.
