We will be putting some other items up that will further explain aspects of the field operations so everyone can get a handle on it prior to being there. This is going to be bigger than...

    The front row isn't reserved for BFR flyers. The spots at this event are first come first serve. If you want a great spot I would suggest getting there Thursday. We plan on putting most BFR flyers in the right front and second row but that's not set in stone just easier for us to RSO the BFR's...

    Hi Todd. No you will not have to go all the way back. Our away cell area is very large almost like a separate launch site. When you come out to the away cell area you will be assigned to one of 4 banks and then a pad or tower on that bank. you will be able to come back to the oasis area and...

    Jerry that is way cool a LDRS 42 Rocket. Stickered up with all the vendors. If you want to clear it when you come up to static test your 6 inch motors Id be happy to lay some automotive clear on that puppy.

    Motor hard coat anodizing with Teflon

    Hi Team. Great info Iam only having two cases done in reg and two in hard coat and two in Hardcoat with Teflon. Ill give them all a try and report back. I've been using reg Loki and AMW hard coat cases for years so the real only nuance is the one with Teflon. Ill report back on pricing as well.

    Motor hard coat anodizing with Teflon

    Hi Team. I sent out a few cases to be anodized. Two Iam having regular color sealed anodized like most we see today. Two Iam having hard coat anodized similar to the AMW cases if you remember they were an off shade of gray green color. That makes the surface about 70 Rockwell. I always liked AMW...

    Hi Nathan. Its very interesting. I wasn't a level 1 when I found the field in 2009 it was LDRS 28. I felt the same way you do. I couldn't believe how big it was so many vendors so much information all in one place. It was the best time of my life and I haven't looked back. Not sure were your...

    Jerry Great projects you have going really cool. Id love to hear from others as to some of the planned flights. Iam especially interested in the altitude flights over 10 k, Those that flew at URRF 9 saw we had several pads set up past the C bank for those flying high. That was done to...

    Jerry and Dr Wogz Well said and thanks for that. You don't realize how educational it is to volunteer. You really learn a lot and there's always help so you don't have to worry about being there trying to figure it out on your own, you see everyone's projects and how its done its like being a...

    Jerry is right its best to invest in tracking before you take a big loose. Most do it in reverse order and it hurts both ways. On another note book the campsite now or any form of stay. Don't think for a minute you'll find one later. if you do the price will reflect waiting. If you find out...

    All good as they say. I look forward to seeing everyone. Our launches are always fun because of the people. Our URRF launches are well attended, and our group has that down as we practice once a year. LDRS is about 4 times that of URRF so we try to stay proactive on getting anyone we can to sign...
