There will be a CATO meet at the Durham fair grounds (field adjacent to...) on July 17th from 0930-1500. Check website for launch status and fees.
This time I will test all the birds I'm bringing for motor and rod fit the night before. And I'll preload my engines with igniters, and my birds with wadding and engine spacers if necessary.
And I will NOT leave my 3 tube cluster airframe Sandman frying on the car hood; it came out with a 10 degree curve due to uneven heating on the fillet between the tubes. Luckily it straightened itself out over a week of sitting upright in the basement.
Less prep! More WHOOSH! The Lamp WILL fly this time.
