Well, along with the new centering rings we also received our samples of other rings.
FlisKits will be announcing a family of Ejection Baffles later this summer, but since I will be displaying and using them at tomorrow's CMASS launch I figured I would post about them here as well.
Right now I only have baffles for the BT-55, BT-60 and BT-70, but by the time we release we will be including a baffle for the BT-50 as well.
The baffles will have some elements common to other baffle kits you may have seen/used, but there will be a few distinct differences that we beleive improve the quality, strength and ease of assembly and use.
Additionally, each baffle kit will come with 3 feet of #90 kevlar thread so that you can update your *entire* recovery system with this one kit.
To promote sales of these kits, there will be a link to purchase a baffle kit of the appropriate size with each product description for model rocket kits containing a BT-50 or larger tube. At this time, our plan is to make it possible to purchase the kit *plus* baffle for less than the indivdual combined costs.
This and the next two replies show pictures of the baffles we are testing right now.
This first one is the BAF-55-013, shown with a US quarter for scale.
