Sold MWP Sales

[mrwalsh85]

Hello,

Will be at MWP for a while on Saturday to support SLI team's launch.

I have the following available for sale. I ask that if you're interested, please post here or send PM by Friday afternoon letting me know what you're interested in and how to meet up at the field.

I don't intend to bring anything if no one is interested.

Cash or paypal (@ field) preferred, in the event I don't make it or have to bug out earlier than anticipated.

FL/LL Electronics Tracker system - came from the estate of a former rocketeer. Worked fine when he flew back then. Asking $old OBO. Looks pretty complete sans fresh batteries.

Looks like freq is 216.034.

Update: There are two transmitters included. I see two bags containing frequency numbers. One is 216.034 as listed above. The other is 216.055.



Rocketman R9 parachute - $old



Storage Container, from the ATF days... asking $50



Hot Wire Foam Cutter Setup - $50 OBO



Vacuum Pump - Asking $75




Again, if interested, please send PM. I will not bring any of the above with me if no one is interested.

Hello there I’m interested in the tracker. If it’s available. Do you know if it tracks the ones that Tim with wildman sells. If so I could send you the money Via PayPal. Please let me know

Thank you

Rob

Do you know what weights the R9 is supposed to be good for?

I don't believe it works with the transmitters Tim sells, no.

What are the frequencies of the transmitters?

What are the frequencies of the transmitters?

Tim’s website says his ‘receiver’s/ transmitters range is 219 thru 225 mhz

I own Tim's transmitters and receivers, I was inquiring about the LL Electronics transmitter pictured above posted by the OP.

Hoping to understand the frequency not "channel 3 tune 4" as pictured.

Ah my bad… Sry there new to this forum thing.. somehow, I felt it was directed towards me.

Looking on the LL Electronics website, their range is 216MHz - 219MHz, which is below the range of what Wildman sells.

Interesting. Those numbers don't match the standard chutes available on the site today

@Buddy Michaelson Does an R9C equate to a 6ft standard parachute today?

Yeh the old numbering system is not the same as todays numbering system which is why I was wondering.

Correct, that's the old/legacy ratings/sizes.

RC9 is a 96” chute (8ft). The number is the first number in inches. So a RC6 is 60” (5ft). RC12 is 120” (10ft) and so on. Just to verify, you could measure the lines, they should be 8ft long from loop to end cut. Or measure one of the wing panels, a 8ft is 2x2ft. Or measure from line, to top loop, which would be x2=size as chute size is measured over the top. Hope this helps.

FYI I've updated the listing with freq numbers. I will bring this with me to the field for anyone interested in inspecting it and possibly making a purchase. @rfjustin ,
