Rocketry Links

[Mike]

For people looking for a shop to buy their first kit from or for those who can't remember the address of their favourite site I've compliled a list of some of the many rocketry pages on the internet . You should be able to see the name of the shop and the URL too.

If you can think of some sites (or sections) that I'm missing then just PM me and I'll update the list. Please use Private Messages just so the thread doesn't get cluttered. Thanks!

[tnrocketman]

Great list!
BTW, MC2 website should be www.mc2rocketry.ORG

 

[Mike]

Thanks for the good response guys.

The personal pages section is lacking a bit though, it prooved quite hard to track them down. So if you can think of any nice personal rocketry sites (even your own!) let me know via PM.

 

[Darian Rachal]

Mike, Thanks for taking the time to compile the list. Very nice.

 

[Ray Dunakin]

I have a lot of rocketry stuff on my site, including Rocket Aerial Photos, payload construction, staging tips, etc.

Rocket Aerial Photos:
https://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumList?u=3009006

Also...

HAKO Ballistics (Booster hardware, nosecones, etc.)
https://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=3009006&a=30253388&f=0

 

[Hexnut]

For the fans of sugar motors there is Richard Nakka's Experimental Rocket Site and our own site Trailer Trash Aerospace

www.nakka-rocketry.net
trailertrashaerospace.com

 

[firemanup]

Throw my site on the personal list too if you'd like.. plenty of rockets, static pics, liftoff pics, and video....

www.firemanrocketry.com

 

[rstaff3]

This thread should be 'sticky'. Good job Mike!

 

[rstaff3]

How about adding a 'contests' catagory. There is the RMR DESCON https://www.rmrdescon.com/, the fliskits contest, etc. I think there are others...???...

 

[Mike]

I've added a couple more sections, Dick's suggestion of "Contests" and also a section for relevant non-rocketry sites.

With all the extra links people have suggested the list now has over 200! Thanks!

 

[bsexton]

Nicely done - thanks for taking the time to put this list together!

 

[Mike]

Mr Moderators,
Would it be possible for this to be made a sticky thread? It would be much more accessible so people wouldn't have to go through all the old threads to find it and would therefore be more useful. New members would also be able to see that it existed!

Thanks

 

Please count us in, Manager and members of the
Rocketry Preservation Society

https://groups.msn.com/ROCKETRYPRESERVATIONSOCIETY/_whatsnew.msnw

Thanks JP

 

[Stymye]

still waiting for the "sticky" to happen.............................................

 

[WiK]

Hmmm... Maybe the glue is still drying?


Mike, you may want to point out Congreve is A) In the UK and B) A vendor not a mfg

Why would the glue be drying if it's sticky??

Maybe they need to add more hardener!

Jason

 

[WiK]

Hmmm... ok...


Maybe they were trying to use White glue and havent realised its not that sticky?

 

[Mike]

Thanks Wik!

I don't have a problem if the mods want to leave this as a normal thread but I do feel it would be much more useful if it was a sticky.

 

[wwattles]

Maybe they used some Pacer ZAP CA and it dried too fast?

WW

 

[KermieD]

The question becomes one of who's willing to keep this up to date. Already, barely 2 weeks into the thread, RPS Manager's request to be on the list has gone unanswered. I also know Rockethead Rockets has weekly and monthly contests. This is one of the most time-consuming forums to moderate as it is, since it's one of the biggest and one of the most potentially inflammatory, and I don't know that any of the mods will be willing to keep it updated.

So....it'll get a lot closer to "sticky" status if someone's willing to step up and own the updating of the original post. Volunteers?

 

[Mike]

Firstly, RPS asked for his site to be added at just gone 1AM in my time zone, I added it the next time I was online, about 11 hours afterwards (please note I was asleep for a chunk of that time and playing tennis for the rest.)

You may note that over the last couple of weeks *I* have updated this list regularly, as and when people have sent me links. Ive also included additional websites that I have found since. I've had a good response and *all* the links that have been suggested have been added promptly. I cannot think of every rocketry website that is in existence so I asked people to send me missing links via PM, a lot of activity has gone on via the PM system.

I would be very willing to continue to update this list (as I have been doing so far) and at no point have I asked a moderator to take over this. If becoming a Sticky thread means only a moderator would be able to update the list (ie. I would not be able to edit my original post) then I agree it would be unfair to ask someone to take that on.

Perhaps its worth noting I spent many hours of my time compiling this list, searching for sites and checking that *every* link was valid.

Just trying to put something back into TRF...

 

[KermieD]

I think I misconveyed. I wasn't implying that you could no longer do it if we stickied it. My apologies if that's what came across. If you want the job, it's yours.

The only other question regarding the sticky IMO is whether the other mods will think it redundant with the Links button at the top of the forum. Also, anyone who has link banners, please submit!!

You'll see a decision soon on this.

 

[Mike]

Thats quite alright Kermie. Thanks.

 

[Leo]

I think the admins are hesitant because you don't have this worthy rocket site in your list. I'd bet you'd have better chances if it were

Anonymous poster shall remain ..... anonymous :kill:

 

[KermieD]

Stickied.

 

[WiK]

Woo!

 

[Mike]

Thanks guys!

Kermie, sorry if we got our wires crossed earlier.

 

[KermieD]

Nuttin' to be sorry about, Mike. It was all my bad.

 

[Stymye]

thanks moderators !

 

[Mike]

Updated 15/6 - just gotta say, one of the fun bits of making this list has been the national bodies section. It's pretty interesting to see how rocketry is done in other countries.
