    Badger Anthem Question

    It must be that Canadian air, Paul. I only have problems when I try to hurry the job. Matt

    BMX? were you there for the Genesis?

    PK Ripper is one I always wanted to have, my friend sold it to another friend and it still resides with him. I miss my GT std., I probably rode that thing 1000 or more miles. I don't miss the road rash from missing a trick, we tend to take a little longer to heal now, 25-30 years later. Matt

    SUMO Questions/Suggestions

    Mine doesn't have buttons on it yet, but if I want to fly it with one of my clubs, I will have to add buttons. Nobody wants to use 1/4 or bigger rods these days, seems the rails have officially taken over. I just wish most kits would come with them already, instead of yet another thing to buy...

    SUMO Questions/Suggestions

    That is pretty much how I built mine the second time around, except for reinforcing the tube, it doesn't really need that, IMO. Flies great on H motors, I haven't flown it with anything smaller. You may want to add rail buttons to your "mods" list. Have fun. Matt

    It took forty years, but now L1.

    Congrats on a successful flight. Now, time for bigger birds, bigger and badder cases and reloads, altimeters and trackers, oh my! Get out your wallet. Have a good one and welcome to the club. Matt

    Successful Level 3 Cert

    Congrats, that is a huge accomplishment. I wish I still lived out there sometimes( when losing rockets to the trees around here). Have a good one, and great job. Matt

    Formation flying Nanobots?

    I thought of "Runaway" with Gene Simmons and Tom Sellek. I do think that kind of tech can be very easily used for sinister actions. I hope you are a good shot when you are their target. Matt

    Vacation launch in Alamogordo

    Nice video Chris. Sucks that rocket keeps going a foul. I liked the background music. Man you are lucky, you are getting to launch all over the country. Take it easy bro, see you when I see you. Matt

    Apogee's shipping???

    The main reason I don't shop there. The only time I do is if no one else has the product(Jolly Logic Alt1) and that cost almost $10 to ship, yes, a little high IMO. Matt

    4" Scale ARCAS build/scratch

    Pretty incredible Paul. Those fins are something else. I have most of the tools(even the welders you spoke of), but not too much experience in using the woodworking tools. Still getting settled at our new/old place. Not much building going on here, but a lot of cleaning up snd getting rid of...

    Broke my highest and fastest flight!

    Could be totally wrong, but I'm am not seeing anything more than 1000fps, which I figured out to be roughly 681.81 mph. I could be completely off base though, no advanced math here. Sorry about your rocket, I have one too that I have been waiting to put together. What happened with the Kevlar...

    CTI and Atech 29's ejection charge?

    I tried to weigh the powder, but my scale apparently is not sensitive enough to get a definite value. The little vials are graduated and it is filled to the 1.4 line, I don't know what the unit of measure is though, grams? Matt

    CTI and Atech 29's ejection charge?

    If no one has weighed the amount by the time I get the kids on the bus, I will. I think the AT loads come with 1.4g in the little vial. I don't know about CTI. Matt
