[Chicagonative17]

Due to having more entrees than poll spots allowable. I have broken up the contest into 3 different branches, lpr,mpr and hpr. There will be a prize from Bohica for each winner in the 3 classes.

 

[berlinetta]

May I post a picture of my entry in the appropriate thread? It seems that the link does not work.

 

[Chicagonative17]

Go ahead. I can't seem to fix it.

 

[berlinetta]

I posted my Myspace link to the picture there.

 

[Chicagonative17]

Nickc seems to have won! Great job.

I will have Bohica contact you for your prize.

 

[berlinetta]

When you taking entries for October?

 

[Chicagonative17]

im doing the thread now.

 

[Rocketry nut]

Do I win a prize for getting the least amount of votes? Lol Wow I would have thought the carrot would have done better than 1...and no that was not my vote.

 

[berlinetta]

Rocketry Nut,

I only received 1 vote for my Black Brant II. The carrot looks to get anyone's attention at a launch. I am not saying anything bad against your building skills, but I would stop everything I was doing to see how the carrot would fly.

In August, our club president flew a shuttle cock on a F20. It was a great horizontal flight, lol.

I like the carrot. Great job. Sorry about the 1 vote.

Okay scratch that. Berlinetta and I can share the compensation prize. The carrot has only flown once so far for a great flight. I can't wait to fly it again.

BTW the BB2 is my absolute favorite scale rocket. I only have the Estes version now, but would love to make a 4in version. Unfortunately for you there was another BB and it was bigger. That didn't help matters for you.

 

[berlinetta]

The Black Brant has not flown yet. It was scheduled to fly in 2 weeks, but I scrubbed it and I rescheduled it for November. I will be receiving the Estes version from Estes, because I had 2 CATOs with the motors. They are also sending me motors too. The Black Brant series is my favorite of all the sounding rockets. I am hoping to one day get the 6" version of it from Smokin' Rockets.

What are the specs on the carrot?

Sweet. What's it going up on?
You're getting a BB2 from Estes even though they are OOP? Dang maybe I can get one too somehow. The cone of mine flew off during the last flight when the shock cord broke. That Smokin' Rockets version is very nice, but just a little expensive for my wallet currently.

The carrot is 1.3in diameter, 21in long, and weighs around 1 1/5oz. It was designed to fly on A-C. So far it has one C6-5 flight.

 

[berlinetta]

The Smokin' Rockets version is out of my price range as well, but it would be nice to have though.

I am getting a replacement for the Black Brant II that CATOed in April. That one was also a replacement to one that CATOed in November 2006. I want to wait until this replacement shows up and is built before flying my larger one.

The Black Brant II that I had in the contest will be going up on a H123. wRASP has it simmed to just over 2000 feet. I used the Cosmodrome version in the program and just changed the weight. I just put a shock cord protector and a chute protector in it tonight. This Black Brant II was from Red Arrow Hobbies. I believe the price went up since I got mine. It is $89.95 now. I paid $79.95 for mine. If you compare the Cosmodrome version to the one from Red Arrow Hobbies, you will see why I spent the extra $30. It was well worth it.

Rocketry Nut

I am your one lonesome vote. I really thought it looked good!

 

[Chicagonative17]

Well, I guess you guys must wait until he responds, other than that, there is nothing I can do. I will try and get into contact with him.

 

[Bohica]

I got it...I have been out of town. All winners should send me an email at [email protected] with their address and we will get their prizes out. Congratulations!

 

[Nickc]

I just found out that I won the September contest and would like to say, be it a little late, thanks to all those who voted for me and thanks to my fellow competitors.

Generally, I am a reserved individual but... WOOOOHOOOOOOOOO.
