Why are you hating on Chrisn? He wasn't the ex employee. It was rocketgirlinca.

Sorry Rick, is there a reason you're irritated and attacking Chrisn for saying "congrats" to the winner?

Not paying attention and treading on thin ice there. Leave the peace-keeping to us. :bangpan:
 
Im confused. What bought you to the conclusion I am "rocketgirlinca"?

If I had been an employee of Aerotech, I wouldn't have resigned or got myself fired!
 
Yeah, never been to California. I will be stopping by there when I go to balls though :D

Hey, capitalize that "BALLS"-event reference in the future if you could, please. :D

It gives the moderators jitters. :blush: :roll:

By the way, I'm not sure what rdmmdr meant, either.

Thanks!!

Congrats, Bob.

I am impressed with how fast everyone was able to get these assembled!

Thanks all.

Received the $500 gift certicate yesterday. Very cool. Just have to decide what i want to use it towards.

Bob
 
I've already decided. Just send it my way.

Seriously, congrats Bob. Have fun spending that gift certificate.
 
OK, the next challenge should be assemble, launch, recover, clean, reload and fly again.... THAT would make for an interesting video!:D

Would that be like the back of the shampoo bottle -- "lather, rinse, repeat"?

The challenge there is the variety in the rockets, weather conditions, etc.

Best method would be identical rocket kits, same motor, all from the same batch.

This sounds like a contest for a Large Launch, everyone build the same type rocket, prep and install the same type of motor, and then launch them all at the same time, using the approved given initiator/igniter. Then they should be timed on how long it takes to recover and prep for the next flight.
 
Finally decided what i wanted, and placed my order today, over the phone. Couple hats, couple RDKs, few Gs, couple Hs, and the rest in Is. Ordering over the phone was an easy process (thanks Brenda).

Bob
 
Oo! Now that does sound cool! :)

That's why Brenda called today and needed my address..... :D

Lotsa goodies there!:D So what did the shopping list consist of(other then the 29mm case and the 2 hats which are obvious:rolleyes:)?
 
That's very impressive. I've assembled 2 29/180 loads, and they took me about 15-20 minutes.

So once you greased the "O" Rings--you paused for lunch? I think that with a little experience--you will find that it will take about 2 minutes--at the most. Once you know what you are doing, Aerotech reloads are a snap to assemble.
