Thinking of adding a strobe to my drogue line, kinda hard to see anything over 3,000 feet, I am however able to see aircraft strobes at altitude, sooooo... any suggestions ???

Heh. In my L3 bird, I have an Eggfinder GPS tracker with the RPSMA antenna for extra range
+ PLUS +
An alarm warbler that goes off on drogue deployment.
+ PLUS +
An alarm warbler that goes off when the nose cone and its pilot chute separate from the rocket on main deployment.
+ PLUS +
A strobe on the payload bay and on the nosecone base for visual tracking.

LOL! There are two possibilities here:
1- You were born very very smart, or
2- You have flown at Bong more than once
:lol: :rofl: :handshake:![]()
I have pics of the GPS in here, but not of the alarms or strobes.

The alarms are here. At $13 for two, they can't be beat:

I bought the strobes and matching polycarbonate domes from the site I linked before. I haven't flown them in a rocket yet, though.
