NAR F Giant Altitude Postal Contest
NAR is running a postal contest that sounds like some fun.
Basic idea of the contest is you design a single stage rocket at least 1500 mm (59") in length and at least 75mm in diameter (3" tube) for 3/4 of that length. Fly it on a NAR contest approved F motor with a recording altimeter, submit a Rocksim or Open Rocket file along with the flight recording by October 19th, and the winner gets 50 bucks. I bet a number of you already have rockets that meet the requirements, so I thought some of you might want to give it a shot.

It will go higher if you minimize mass with a paper nose cone and a super short motor mount with no plastic retainer.
This is similar to the big dumb rocket concept. Tech Jerry Last edited by Jerry Irvine : 09-08-2015 at 12:03 PM. |
