(Apologies if you get this twice - Computer user problem) I have created an engine file for Rocksim 9 using the data from Wil's microhybrid with a paper grain....
Hi all, I've been working on a super light weight version of the minihybrid using the 16-gram charger. I just successfully fired it this weekend and wanted to...
Gary, I've created an album in the Photos section of the group called 'Matt's 16-gram minihybrid' that has some photos and a CAD view, if you view the large or...
Hello. I am new to the group and I have a few questions. First off, where do I get a micro hybrid kit? I don't want to dish out the money for a premade one,...
The only "KIT" I know of is the Aerocon S"creamer but this is a complete engine. Others may know where a parts kit can be found. As far as the whipits go you...
I am going to make a micro hybrid, but I did have a question. Will a whip-it canister fit into an aluminum tube that has an inside diameter of 0.745? Could...
Hello all, I am new to hybreds and interested in microhybreds. Kellyfamily and I are starting to build a micro motor. I have been in rocketry many years and...
I have always used small plugs of APCP bored out of a scrap 38mm EX grain that someone was going to throw in the burn pit. ... [Non-text portions of this...
... You may want to try Crimson Powder which is a homemade formulation of potassium nitrate (KNO3 or saltpeter), ascorbic acid (vitamin C)and red iron oxide...
Dang, such a short question and somehow I responded to something else. Please ignore my first response. I only fly the microhybrid in saucers, but do use...
Where do you buy BP or Pyrodex? It looks like if I order it online, HatMat fees will double the cost. (Assuming I buy it a pound at a time. I don't expect to...
BP is generally behind the counter. Call around a little, the smaller local gun shops are usually more likely to stock it. You want 4F. PyrodexP will work, but...
Here in Pa I get BP at a sporting goods store. About $20/lb. Just go to the counter and ask for a pound of 4F. Lately I have had to show my drivers license,...
I saw this comment on another Yahoo group and thought it might make for an interesting discussion. Art Applewhite In a message dated 10/28/2009 8:37:31 A.M....
Not possible unless you are into re-tanking your nitrous like any other hybrid. Which of course eliminates any advantage of using whippits. So now you are no...
You know, I thought the very same thing when I saw this comment on the other Yahoo group but then I thought about it for just a few seconds more. I grabbed a...
I think a radical redesign of the micro-hybrid could make it smaller. If you inverted the NOx container and put in in the middle of the combustion chamber the...
I am working on a simple re-design. 1. drill holes or slots in the tube surounding the NO2 cartridge. No need to completely enclose it. 2. do the same in the...
Something to think about ... if your weight drops ENOUGH the old-fashioned 1960's concept of "tumble recovery" might come into play. The idea was to shift the...
I am not sure whether many of you are familiar with the model CO2 motors for model aircraft.These are filled from a CO2 bottle the same size as the whippet...
I've just come back from our NSWRA flying day, having successfully launched my micro in an Art Applewhite style flying saucer. Using cardboard fuel the 160mm...
These can often be seen on ebay. Make sure it has the tank,charging adapter and cartridge holder as they are the main bits we need. Expect to pay around $10...
