    MDRA Rockets Red Glare GPS Frequency Tracking

    Since there is nothing official being done to track what frequencies are being used, I figured I would start a thread for those of us going to Red Glare. Post your device, its name (if applicable), the frequency it uses, the day you plan to fly on, and your name. I will try and keep a chart in...

    29mm Featherweight Avionics Bay Question

    I am looking at getting one of these to use a newly acquired Raven 2 in. One the website there is only a CAD model of the 38 and the manual doesn't specify this (that I saw), do the bulkheads/PCBs fit in a 29mm body tube or a coupler? Also if anyone already has a model of one that would be...

    3D Printing Stainless Steel Nozzle

    So at my school they got a Markforged Metal X printer earlier this year. So naturally I wanted to try and print a nozzle for my 29mm motors. Motor details will be left out, but it is for sugar motors. I'm not sure when I'll be able to static fire this but I will post the results. I'm posting the...

    Sold Eggfinder Mini TX & Receiver with GPS Module - $110 Shipped

    After the failure that was Red Glare this year, I have decided to get rid of my Eggfinder system in favor of RF tracking. This system works on the ground, but I have yet to get it to work in a rocket at the launch fields. I don't know why or if its the area or what but I'm tired of dealing with...

    Smallest Dual Deploy Rocket

    For SSCIJ I got a few Loc 1 series/park flyers. One of them is the Loc Magnum and it has a payload compartment and a coupler so I thought it would be perfect to turn into a dual deploy rocket. Final length of 16" and a diameter of 1" with no external modifications other than the needed vent...

    Electronics Help - 110v -> 220v step up transformer recommendations

    One of my friends just moved into a place with a garage and we are looking at putting my lathe there. Problem is there is only 110v. I currently have the lathe setup for 220v (it is only 3.5 amps max I have ever gotten it to draw) and I am looking for a transformer. Since the VFD is for 1hp I am...

    Found Eggfinder Mini TX Assembled

    I've officially given up on my mini and would like to buy someone else's that already works. Would prefer the 1/4 wave antenna. Bonus if it has a JST connector already on but that is not a big deal as I can always change it out.

    Fitting a Large Parachute in a Small Tube

    I am going to need to fit a 48" parachute into a 29mm body tube and I can't even fit either of the 36" chutes that I have. Both are old with quite a few shroud lines. I am going to need to buy a 48" and would like suggestions on a chute to use. The higher the CD the better but it still needs to...

    Sold Mach 1 Rocketry Karman Line Transport Fin Alignment Guide

    I printed out a guide for aligning the fins and side body tubes. Figured I would see if anyone wants one as they worked very nicely. https://www.mach1rocketry.com/store/p156/Karman_Line_Transport.html this is the version it is for, not the larger one. These are printed out of PLA as they...

    Using CFD for finding center of pressure

    Anyone on here ever used a CFD software to find the center of pressure of a rocket? The design I am working with does not work with the normal rocketry softwares and that is why I am trying to do it this way. Being a student I have access to some full versions of softwares for free. So far I...

    RRC3 Terminal Block Broke

    I was testing fitting electronics for a launch this weekend and the terminal block for the switch and battery broke off of the circuit board. Would it be fine for me to solder directly to the board just for the sake of this weekend? Also does anyone have a source for some terminal blocks I can...

    Eggtimer Mini GPS troubleshooting

    I thought I would ask here first before emailing Cerving since he is probably still busy. I got my first kit for my birthday on the 20th, it was a mini, lcd w/case, and lcd gps.

    Missile Works RRC3 Problems

    I got my level 2 cert today and now that I am home I am trying to find out how high/fast I went. My RRC3 worked perfectly and was beeping out the altitude when I retrieved it. I didn't listen to the beeps but rather just turned it off and made my way back to camp cause it was freezing out. Well...
