What are you flying at MWPX?

[chadrog]

It may be a little early for the info but how many flyers did we have and how many flights. Miki and I had a great time.
Gary

Always nice rappin' with ya Gary, glad you came down. A big thanks for the generous donation to the raffle as well - I was fortunate to come away with a purdy new 58" neon green chute, now I need to build a rocket for it!

 

[chadrog]

John,

PLEASE dont take this wrong. I can not talk about the setup.. I know its weird but part of my contract. Sorry.

Grim

A new offering from Estes? That would be over the top!

A new offering from Estes? That would be over the top!

I believe it would be from Estes' parent company: Hobbico, or one of their name brands. Suffice it to say, lots of carbon, silky smooth brushless motors, a Lipo and a steady pair of thumbs on the sticks! Very cool, Grim!

 

[ECayemberg]

Ummm can I get in on that deal?? I want to earn a Sconnie decal!!

Mark, you can cheat; just print off as many as you like:wink:. Let me know if you'll be at Thunderstruck. Mental note; order more Sconnie decals from Mark!

Gary,

Registered flyers were right around 200. As for numbers of flights and all that stuff, it'll take me a few more days to get those numbers together.

Mr. Lumberjack,

You did an excellent job of compiling the numbers from MWP-9; looking forward to the totals from X! How big is the box/bucket that contains all the flight cards?

Talk about "good sport"

Hey, since he offered it, that means the nickname stuck, right? =P

 

[ECayemberg]

Hey, since he offered it, that means the nickname stuck, right? =P

Hey, I earned it:wink:. We burned 75,731 N-s (93 lbs) of AP at MWP...so that's an 85% P motor by my calculations.

David,

When can we expect to see pictures? I feel like a kid at Christmas.

No more sparky propellant for you:bangbang::neener:

I meant rocket pictures. But once I realized how you took it I almost pee'd myself I was laughing so hard!

I have no photos of Eric's flights :eyepop:

However, between my camera battery dying and me not carrying the thing around the whole time, I got these...

Jim Scarpine's Standard Arm:

A nice L3 cert on a CTI M3700:

Chuck Swindler's Wildman:

Vern's big MR on a blue CTI N:

Scott K's Extreme WM on a Loki L780SF:

CJ checks in for the Pirate drag race:

Pirate drag racers (and PM Foxy, making sure the paperwork is in order):

As expected, CTI motors win:

then Tim Dixon catches up with the Loki special:

Jason follows shortly thereafter with a Loki J1000:

and my buffer filled up before Steve's J825 lit.

Roger Jezler's Mad Max on an SPR M:

CJ's Vindicator with the new RRC3 onboard, on a K700:

Manny's L3 was a family affair:

M2200SK:

Yes, it did recover:

Pumpkins on a J460T:

Hot Tub's WM on a Sconnie Sparky:

Hot Tub listening to his altimeter readout, I think:

 

[daveyfire]

Greg LaMaster's big Sidewinder:

My LJ on a Carol Ryan L695BL:

Jenny Gross' Tigress XL on a CTI blue motor:

Jason was sad that nobody else wanted to take a group photo with him:

Roger Jezler's I5 on a 17.5k SPR:

Vic Barlow's 6" BBX on a 12.5k 65/35 SPR:

Lumberjack's Darkstar Extreme on another Sconnie Sparky:

Gus Piepenburg's War Eagle on an AMW N2801SK:

And note that I didn't pee myself

Jason was sad that nobody else wanted to take a group photo with him:

Wow, scary! Jason looks like he's in a criminal lineup!

 

[SS/EA 6BBL 71 Cuda]

Seawolf? You the fellow from Oak Creek?

 

[halcro1]

Yep it was the blue seawolf... And the yellow woket

 

[SMR]

And the yellow woket

Indeed, a fine looking Woket. Hey, it was nice meeting you at the launch. We'll hopefully see you again at next years.

Or at the sod farm or Johnson Creek or Bong - I think he said he joined WOOSH?

Here's a poor quality video of my Level three. I wasn't making sure that I was following it, I was just watching...

That's Jason singing in eye of the tiger in the background. I'm sure that Justin's video of this flight is MUCH better.

 

[halcro1]

I go to bong and a memnber of woosh. This was a great time and we will be back. I just ordered a polecat. 5.5 Phoenix.

 

[Grimracer]

It important to say.. ESTES is committed to ROCKETRY! Estes will still help the new aspiring non rocketry pilots but with some cool lower dollar offerings.. BUT.... rockets are there focus!

Thank you

Grim
