    38mm forward cap

    Does anybody use the forward cap that comes with AT reloads for the recovery well? I've never used one, they fit very tightly. I've always used masking tape.

    Gmail problem

    About half the time when I try to send photos with Gmail on my Samsung (Android), they just sit in the outbox and never send. The other half of the time they go right through. For instance, tonight I sent four Gmail messages with four photos attached to each. The first one went right through...

    Free rocket box

    Anybody want a free wooden rocket box? I haven't used it in several years. It's in pretty good shape, albeit dirty. There are a few rockets in it, which go with the box. The dimensions are approximately 42"L x 17"H x 14"W. You must pick it up at a LUNAR Snow Ranch or SARG Gibson Ranch launch...

    Slo-Mo Rocksim file

    Is there a way to open this file in Open Rocket so that it shows the perpendicular fins? OR just ignores them.

    24/60 motor files

    Does anybody know where I can find the Rocksim/Open Rocket files for the new 24/60 reloads? Specifically, F51NT, F62FJ and F63R.

    Weird PC problem

    This notification pops up every few minutes, saying that space on disk H is getting low. When I open H, it says that it's empty. But when I look at its properties, it says it has 412 MB of content. Anybody know what's up?

    Beveling Nike Smoke fins

    I'm considering a 4" semi-scale scratch built Nike Smoke. The fins will be plywood. Does anyone have any ideas on how to bevel the fins? They will be about 5-1/4" wide (less the tabs), and I have a 6" stationary belt sander. A jig of some sort?

    G71 Redline?

    I just saw a drawing on Aerotech's website for a G71 Redline reload for the 29/40-120 case. But I can't find it for sale anywhere. Is it new? Old? I don't remember hearing about it before. There is data on rocketreviews.com and it is in the Open Rocket database...

    Tube fins in Open Rocket

    Has anyone used Open Rocket to design a tube fin rocket? There is a warning that says tube fin support is experimental. Are the sims accurate enough?

    Red! Red! I like Red! There's no substitute for Red!

    I know, the song is actually "I want Red!", but "I like Red!" sounds better to me. A friend of mine used to live in Kansas many years ago. He had a little old lady neighbor who had her house painted inside and out in bright red. She even drove a red car. He and his roommate used to say, "Red...

    The Captain's personal launch report, LUNAR Snow Ranch launch, 020318

    Better late than never. It was a gorgeous day at the Ranch on February 3rd. It was very well attended, I think someone said they counted 143 cars. We stayed later than usual, and enjoyed a gorgeous sunset.

    The Captain's personal launch report, SARG launch, 012718

    Getting caught up on my launch reports. It was a beautiful day at Gibson Ranch Park on January 27. It was also a very busy launch, with a lot of kids in attendance.

    The Captain's personal launch report, SARG launch, 022418

    It was a nice day at Gibson Ranch Park, although it was very cold when we got there. It was also very windy. I was going to launch my new one, Airborne, with a load of miniature paratroopers. But there weren't very many kids there, and because of the wind, I decided to only launch Make Tube Fly...

    Calling the Open Rocket Chuck Norris

    Or anyone who can figure this out... Why isn't Open Rocket showing "Velocity at deployment"?

    New scratch build: Running With Scissors v2

    A few years ago, I built a rocket of my own design, that I called "Running With Scissors". I never did fly it, andn finally decided to give it to someone who would. When My friend Olga saw it, she thought it was the coolest rocket ever, and there was something about "running with scissors" and...
