    Any RV people on the board?

    But you had fun right?! ;) You are absolutely right about the tasks. On my way to LDRS I camped at the Air Zoo, an Alpacha farm, and the SS Badger. Much better than a Holiday Inn.

    Any RV people on the board?

    This was our home for 9 days for LDRS. 30' Airstream, full solar and generator, towing with a 1500, 12 mpg. I can boondock as long as my 40 gallons of water lets me. We travel one full week a year and at least 1 weekend a month. We also use it for volunteer work. It's a lifestyle choice...

    Is there a "preferred" or favorite campground?

    We are camping in Sunrise campground site 224 & 223 starting July 4 thru Sunday. Would anyone be interested in coming by in the evening Wednesday for campfire / potluck / bourbon tasting? We would love to meet up a swap rocket stories!

    Hogan's Heroes Movie

    A intentional requirement is being missed. All the major German roles were played by Jewish actors.

    Motor Plans for a L2 cert at 2023 LDRS

    Please excuse the upcoming rambling! I'm trying to wrap my head around what to purchase at next weeks Wildman sale for use next year. Some background on myself: I've been involved with the hobby for the past 45 years. Almost all of this has been with low power. I've helped host major youth...

    LDRS 41 Official Information thread

    Not sure where you are looking, but I just checked and electric sites still remain. I have 2 sites in Sunrise (223 & 224) for the launch. 222 is open with 30amp. Come join us!

    What companies produce kits?

    NASA, but just static models.

    Red Glare 2023?

    Thanks, I did see the list. I was wondering if there was a "favorite" campground where other flyers stayed. It's always more fun to sit around a campfire and lie about great flights!

    Red Glare 2023?

    As we start to enter fall, I'm starting planning for next years vacations. I've already booked campgrounds for LDRS. I would love to plan on Red Glare. First, does a date exist yet? Second, I'll be camping in my Airstream. Is a favorite campground listed anywhere? Thanks!

    LDRS 41

    We are arriving on the 3rd. This allows us to reserve thru the event. Also, we can go celebrate the fourth somewhere, perhaps Kenosha? Note, you can always cancel the dates prior to the event and get your money back.

    LDRS 41

    I'm playing it safe. Me and my sister have both reserved campsites already. Right now there are plenty available, but I didn't feel like playing "site lottery"! We are in sites 223 & 224 (Sunrise, electric) if anyone wants to join us to take over a "rocket camping area"? Potluck dinners and...

    Help me ID my Rockets!

    Thanks so far for the ID's. I very rarely scratch build. Chances are 99% that the silver one is a kit. Note the different fin sizes. That may make a difference.

    Help me ID my Rockets!

    I'm planning on flying this weekend for the first time in a few years. A couple years ago I built a few kits, but forgot their names! I'd like to look up the "suggested motors". Any help is appreciated!

    Apogee X-15 with Rail Buttons?

    Thanks for the effort, I really appreciate it. Your findings are exactly what I expected. I think I'll try to incorporate a 1/4" standoff. Hopefully it doesn't have too much effect on the flight. I'll do my best to get the photos. My buddy is coming with me this year specifically to...

    Apogee X-15 with Rail Buttons?

    That's not a problem solved, It's a problem avoided! I'm building it specifically to launch at NYPower!! Truthfully, it's very difficult for me to get out to a launch these days. I'm taking vacation to do this fantastic launch.

    Apogee X-15 with Rail Buttons?

    Apogee has been great with support. They have informed me that it is my responsibility to re-engineer any alterations to the design. Unfortunately, I do not have any 1010 rail. I may be forced to model the profile.
