I was wondering if anyone had anything big, out of the ordinary, or special for whatever reason planned for Eat Cheese or Fly?
I'll be flying my Darkstar Extreme for the first time, on a K1275.

Maybe a PML Black Brant/terrier Booster. :chuckle: waiting for feedback on it.

In appropriate ECOF fashion, as well! Looking forward to a post-flight sample.

Thanks boss. Are you familiar with the origin of it? Sadly it's not my design.

Where did you find a picture of Carl's car intact? I think it only lasted about a quarter of an episode. Didn't it end up with a jet engine mounted to it eventually?

Among other things, yes. There's lots of pictures to be had with a Google search, that one was good enough to copy.

I spent the heat wave cardstocking more rockets; I think I have 12 more designs done that will be built and ready to fly by ECOF, including the Astron Farside 3 stage (This one might have to wait until we get some rain; for whatever reason I can't get it to swing test). I have also finished one of my Astrocam 110 kits, and will take some film out of the freezer to fly. I need to try and get a picture while I can still get the film developed.

Did you make one for the next sod farm launch? I'll give you an E75.

Whats's minimum diameter on that motor? I can upscale something in Corel and see if it holds together :)

It's 24mm, same basic dimensions as a D12.

With that new HPR CERT LEVEL 1 (http://forums.rocketshoppe.com/showpost.php?p=148698&postcount=1), CenturiKid could use something a bit bigger :)

Thanks for the info... I think I can pull together something you will like. Is this a single use motor? I wouldn't want to risk a case with what I'm thinking about attempting....

It's a reload, but the case is not expensive.

Here's a comparison of the two (minus aft closure).
