Figured it's almost 2017, and vendors are probably wondering what people want, so why not make up a thread to post up your requests.....

Here's mine to get things started. They'd all be re-releases of kits I either missed or have fond memories of.


1. Arapahoe's! a 24mm Arapahoe E/F with a cardboard body tube? a 29mm Arapahoe H/I in fiberglass? 13mm Arapahoe A? I'd buy 'em all!
2. A clone and/or upscale of the 1906 Sizzler. Lots of good memories in that one.
3. Upscaled versions of the "Mini Tri-Pack" #0866. Mainly the Star Seeker and S.C.R.A.M, but the Sting Ray was cool too.

What are you guys in the mood for?

Rockets... Lots of them, including some 4" High Power stuff, and all the materials needed to build them, and get them safely to me here in China.

- Head end ignition, commonly & commercially available (I know AT is working on this and I am excited to see it)
- Staging vertical 'alignment' system (like Jim Jarvis is working on), perhaps as a dedicated inter-stage coupler
- Guided/steered GPS parachute recovery system
- Rear ejection kit options for apogee/drogue deployment
- Raven 3.0 altimeter & the long-awaited Sparrow?
- More wireless arming/testing and real-time telemetry electronic options
- Shear pin drilling guides

I would line to see genuine sustained growth in the number of hobby participants. This would be good for all the manufacturers and the rocketry orgs.
