I guess the 'cryptic' description would be mine. I filled the nozzle area with black powder and sealed them with masking tape dipped in powder. You could...
Two out of three successful ignitions is about my average on Micro Maxx Igniters on just single engines. How much black powder do you recommend using? Did you...
I have about the same success on regular single engine launches. I found that crud builds up on the contacts inside the launcher and that cleaning them with...
Wow I'm excited!! I've been building and flying Mirco-Maxx models, since the introduction of the motors. Its great to see there are others out there with the...
HI guys: Khim Bittle and I have had great luck clustering 3 and 4 motors using 30gage wirewrap wire, with Igniterman or firestar pyrogen, the trick is single...

Hi Dick: Sure, don't mind at all, My launchers are always available for club use even it I'm not flying MM's. If we start getting enough Micro-Maxx flying at...

John, I only have Corel9. Can you export it to an older version of Corel? Corel would be preferable to bitmap formats. Dick Stafford TRA #06578 L2, MDRA...
I was getting my MMXII's at Wallymart in Frederick, but I think someone said they dropped them????? Dick Stafford TRA #06578 L2, MDRA #0303 NAR #47992 SR L2,...
Sure Corel-9 is ok, can't go below corel-5, but like I said I'm pretty sure the Bomarc stuff is all pencil and ink drawings. either way I'll have something for...
I haven't spoken to anyone at Quest. No one was there any of the times I called. If you know someone there then by all means tell him about te BiC Stic and...

John, How much are the engines in bulk? Are they cheaper than the prices in the database. What do they charge for shipping. and finally Who do you call? Art...
To Art and John. The ansures are good and helpful. At this time my biggest fear is I will get started in this part of rocketry and the motors will dry up....
Frank, I too would hate for the MMX motors to go away. They will never replace the bigger ones for me (or the WAY bigger ones), but nevertheless, I have a lot...

Bob Dylan said it best, "The times they are a changin'" For the ansures to you questions you only have to look into the recent past (for some of the BARs or...
