I'm just getting into high power and am trying to decide whether I make the jump to RMS right away, or fly on DMS for some time before getting into reloadable motors.
There are a few things I'm considering, and others I may not be aware of but should factor into the decision.
*Right now I have 29mm and 38mm MMT rockets, at some point 54mm is likely.
*I plan on earning L1 this summer, and possibly L2 this year as well.
*As far as I know there are no brick & mortar places in the MN Twin Cities area that I can buy motors so I would have to have things shipped and DMS = Hazmat fees.
*I will have to drive over an hour to launch HPR so realistically I would probably be going to 3-5 launches each year at most, and while there would want to launch each rocket more than once, to make the drive worth it.
Any opinions or advice on this is welcome, thank you!
