RED GLARE VII

[ben_ullman]

That suits me fine...works well with the Culpeper launch scheduled for the weekend of Oct.31st.

Thats what I was thinking. And it keeps me from being gone every single weekend in October.

ha! Hoping to get the Terrier Sandhawk done. That will be 2 stages burning 75lbs of propellant.

A thing of beauty..... the rocket that is

 

[cjl]

... been checking MDRA website thrice daily with no luck or update...sigh

It may sound small beans to others but I'm planning & excited to do a L1390G or L2290G on this upcoming launch.

Assuming you mean L2200, it's an awesome motor. Tossed my 35lb AMRAAM to >12k with seemingly no effort. It has an enormous flame too

Yeah, that was a great picture. Too bad. Because the lens shattered right after it. It just couldn't take the strain of his ugly mug.

:neener:

 

[JAllen]

Has anyone heard anything else yet? I'm assuming not, but just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything. I'm trying to schedule some events and would hate to schedule something to overlap with Red Glare, if they even host one this year.

Also, got some interesting flights planned. I really hope I can make it to get them off the ground as the other club fields are too small to fly some of these projects.

Thanks,

As it looks right now RG7 won't be till Nov, MDRA just scheduled another launch at the Central Sod farm for Oct 17th & 18th so I'm "guessing" RG7 will be Nov 13-15.

 

[JDcluster]

Do you know what that means?


TURKEY LOFTING!!




Get out those Butter Ball's & start building!

[Diosces]

Thanks Howard! Hope to see you and Ben, the girls and I will attend Friday and Saturday.
I booked it for Thursday & Friday nights.. Thursday night since we are coming from North Jersey. The front desk guy was VERY nice and gave me the discounted group rate for the Thursday night.

 

[Balsa Bob]

Any thoughts on a Friday the 13th theme?

 

[kandsrockets]

At the rate the weather is heading toward winter you might need to breakout the long johns and hand/feet warmers. We will be there unless we are snowed in.

Everyone wear a hockey mask...

 

[Balsa Bob]

How about a mass black cat launch?
Maybe that should be a black mass black cat launch...

add to that list, battery warmers.

 

[ben_ullman]

add to that list, battery warmers.

I wish they put plugs on cars down here like they do cars/trucks and tractors in the midwest. When I go to my grandparents farm in Iowa my job was always run down to the Shed and make sure all the tractors and trucks are plugged in.
