Egg Crate
I am thinking of releasing the Egg Crate with a dual 18mm and single 24mm for the new E12 interchangeable mounts, instead of 2 and 3 engine clusters like the original.
Thoughts?

Carl-
The purest (sp?) in me says stay true to the original kit, but I suspect most others would opt to go with the 24mm mount addition. Since the original had a removable mount, could the 24mm be offered as an 'option' and the base kit issued like the original with the choice to do a 2 or 3 engine 18mm cluster? My thoughts. Earl P.S. Some months back I sent a scan of the original Egg Crate decal to you via email. Don't know if you received or not (can resend), but also see that 'Gus' recently posted having hi res scans also. Let us know if needed. Thanks for working on this kit! elc

Carl,

How about 2x18mm, 3x18mm and 1x24mm interchangable motor mounts? That should make everyone happy. Oh, wait. The HPR folks will want 29mm and 38mm motor mounts. However, remember at the currrent time the 38mm motor mount version will exceed California model rocket regulations.

Sounds Good. Also will you be using balsa transitions in place of the paper transitions? I am now imagining using a cluster of Aerotech 18mms and then using the 24/40 or even 24/60 to really give it a ride. |

Excellent, 18mm cluster and 24mm interchangeable. Would certainly purchase.

I agree with the dual 18mm and 24mm option. Provides equal or better thrust without the issues of clustering.

I'm fine with the dual 18mm / single 24mm interchangeable. Purist can always "convert" the kit to a permanent 3x18mm.
