Rockets & Things

[Karl]

Has anyone ever bought motors from Rockets & Things . I want to get a pack of 29mm Econojet F20-4W's from them but I would like some customer feedback first. Im also interested in the ASP 13 & 24mm V2 , anyone had any expierience with this rocket?
Sorry for the bad spelling

I've bought motors from rockets & things. Usually at events, but way-back-when I bought via mail order too.

I have an ASP 24mm V2. I haven't built it but you can read what I thought of the bits here:

There are other review on the same page too.

I've only purchased BP motors from Rockets'n'Things, but Malc seems like a sound guy. I'm very tempted by some of the ASP stuff he sells, but I want to get better at painting before I attempt scale stuff like that.

I don't buy much from him online because I don't like his web site, but I would certainly spend some hard £££s with him at a launch. (If hes at IRW, I can pay him back that tenner I owe him - he undercharged me last order)

I wanted to buy some AT motors last Sunday, unfortunalty he didn't have any.

Malcolm hasn't had Aerotech motors for ages - the website is way out of date on stock availability.

Your best bet for checking stock is to mail or phone. He is a really nice guy and very good to deal with. He goes to most of the SERFS meetings and others besides and usually had a good stock of kits and BP, sadly no composites at this time.

 

[Reeferjon]

Yep I agree, he has a really good spread and does help where he can.

I've never mail ordered anything from him but I've bought from him at SERFS.

Have bought mail order and at meets - he's pretty quick.

His website DOES need updating though...

I understand he'll be at the Canterbury Cup at Pete's this weekend.

Damge , just a few questions

What other vendors will be there?
Is it at the same site where UKRA2004 was?
Can I take a spectator?
Can I fly normal model rockts , 18mm/24mm there?
And what date?

Karl,

Rockets & Things

Pete's Rockets

(Maybe) Rebel Rocketry & Deepsky

Yes, same site as UKRA (Heckington)

Spectators welcome

Loads of room for sports rockets - I'll probably fly some HPR and some experimental motors in the VMX's

On this weekend - I'm going tomorrow (Sunday) for the VMX competition and the Sport Scale Championship.

Damage...

I have bought BP motors & other things from Malcolm on several occasions. They have always arrived the next day without fail.

Yes, I agree, the website is crap.

Well I'll have a look round Petes Rockets at IRW

Be aware people going to IRW : Cydermaster and I are having a drag race using Semroc Mark II's on B6-4's

Does Malcolm take cheques for mail order? His site doesn't accept my card. (stupid Visa Electron thingie)
