Default New Estes Product

I received my September/October 2021 issue of Sport Rocketry magazine today.

The inside front cover has an ad for the Universal Astrocam. THis product was mentioned during the NARAM-62 Manufacturers' Forum.

It consists of the Astrocam camera and a mounting unit to fit different size rockets.

No pricing information provided but planned availability is December 2021.

I like that the examples in the add are an Alpha and the Rocket Science Starter Set near-Alpha 😎

As I posted in the Bob’s similar thread on “that other forum”, I’ve flown 808 keyfob cameras on models about the size of an Alpha or the RSSSR (which is physically identical to an Alpha VI). It was “interesting”. But the AstroCam camera is smaller so it might work….

It does seem odd to use BT-50-sized models since the AstroCam nose cone is BT-50….
