Rather than have two threads going on what is essentially the same subject, I will attempt to "close" this one and refer you to the thread for your posting...
Group, Also along the lines of the clustering question. If I am flying a simulated mission, e.g. release of Barium, strap-on use and release, 3 chutes for the...
Hello Group, I would like to know if there has been any decision on the matter of clustering and its use in achieving maximum flight points? I was told that...
But that does not reconcile with the length in the ATK data. Mike Nowak "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a...
MIKE, A while back, I wrote to him and got the following information . . . QUOTE: Greetings Dave, You caught me at a good time. I just finished advanced...
First, I hope that all of you have had a happy Thanksgiving. For me it was great to get together with my family. I also enjoyed some time off to look at scale...
Dave, As much as I'd like to be another Dr. Goddard, alas I have only my master's degree, but I'll soon be on my way there. ohhh and Dave I'll the rest of...
Hello Scaleroc! For those who requested it there are finally some photos of a couple of projects including the Phil Bono Hyperion SSTO and a half that I...
I found this image online . . . _http://adboo.com/auto/Image22.gif_ (http://adboo.com/auto/Image22.gif) Dave [Non-text portions of this message have been...
Pat and Matt's article on the scale competition in Sport Rocketry contains a factual error. While my Aerobee was indeed disqualified, it neither used gap...
I found it quite interesting that there were four X-Wings entered, one in each category (A, B, C and Team), all made from the NCR Kit. Each of them had...
It seems that the gentleman at NASA who passed along the MLAS data I used has posted a blog describing building a model with links to some of the good data: ...
Only because the data that they used supported such weathering and battle damage. Jim specifically chose to model a factory fresh X-wing and found the data to...
... Those are good suggestions. Another idea to consider is to have a modified Sport Scale event where everyone builds the same kit (e.g. Estes Black Brant)...
... There is no requirement in the Scale rules that the rocket is to be modeled as it appeared at the moment of launch. Therefore it can be modeled at any time...
My point in general still applies George. Besides, if you really want to get technical then all the reused parts are completely referbished before the next...
... If its a rocket that flies only once, then of course make it factory fresh. <<<<< Problem is, "factory fresh" rockets usually do not get rolled out the...
Personally I look at it this way. It depends on the flight of the rocket. If it was a rocket that was used multiple times and was never repainted, then yes do...
My suggestion is to make it low key and fun. Our section just starting hosting competition in the past year. There was an "initimidation" factor that needs...
To me the classic example is the Sandhawk, whose scale documentation is available from NARTS. There are two white cradle marks on the othewise red fuselage,...
... Generally speaking, the more precisely you model it, the better your score will be. For example, woodpeckers have been know to chip out holes in the Space...
Hello to all, I'm very new to scale rocket modeling. I really like it, I'm looking into what it takes to sponsor either a scale or sport scale event with my...
Great suggestion. Another example is the tape marks on the upper roll patterns on the MR launches. Most, if not all of the inspection hatches had been taped...
