Default Pre-Aerotech ISP RMS hardware

Is there any one collecting RMS hardware? I have some old (1991-92), unfired 29mm
pre-Aerotech ISP cases that I don't want to use if a collector wants them.

There is a 120 and a 180, black with a little name plate giving production numbers . If there isn't anyone who collects old, initial production RMS hardware, I'm gonna fly 'em.

I was firing reloadable motors in 1-90 in public at San Diego club Ocotillo launches, which were published in the local newsletter! These cases seem to prove the AT-RMS patent is false. How much and when?

Email me 01rocket@gte.net

Or I can trade them 3 for 1 + for 29mm and 38mm hardware useable with all existing loads.

Interesting, as I don't see Jerry Irvine on any of the patent or history information concerning the creation of RMS technology:

I'd fly at least the 180; I don't think it has any real extraordinary value as it is the most common 29mm HP case in existence, with the 240 being next. The 120 may be more rare, but I really doubt anyone would consider it collectible.

Jerry, ISP is the parent company of Aero-Tech. These cases are just old, not evidence. I'll get the camera working and post some pictures of the info plate.
