Oct 2nd - CMASS Launch - Amesbury

[n3tjm]

Been a while since CMASS had a HPR launch

I plan to fly my Magnum with a J357, Super Glotova with H128's and F40's, new I-ROC with a H180 and maybe again with an I130.

My friend Sean Lucey from work is coming... he took time off for it . One of my boss's als plans to come. A new Russian friend from Keene, NH that might come (its a 1.5 hour drive for her to meet up with me... so I would not be surprised if she doesn't come)

Who else is going? What do you plan to fly

Oh, I'll probably be there, not sure what I may fly, but I'll be there

Got a 5.5" bird thats itching to be mauled by some "beasts"

If Hobbytown still has them, I plan to buy a couple G64's to go along with the J357 in my Magnum. Total impulse will be 1,240, just under a K.

Joel, which beasts do you think will maul your rocket?

Guys... this is Joel's last launch of the Year... the stork is dropping off a baby girl at his doorstop in Nov, so he has more important things to do for the remainder of the year .

Only if you can demonstrate the maximum altitude is under 3000 feet.

My Mega-Nuke will stay under 3K on a K1000 Skidmark ( nudge nudge )

The J and two G's will still be in the J power range. Estimated altitude is 2600 ft. Final sim will be once I get it painted, electronics and recovery system reinstalled, and weighed.

The MAGNUM is now glassed, primed, and bondoed. Hopefully I can get it painted early this week .

Joel... I'd say go for it . But you'd better ask Bill first . What a way to finish your flying season. I'd volunteer to check the pad after the flight for any problems .
