Re: March 11 ,& 12 Launch status
Wolfram v.Kiparski
There is no launch this weekend. We start scheduling launches in March hoping to catch those rare days that sometimes come around. We've experienced some perfect flying conditions during the late Winter and early Spring in the past. This weekend is not going to be one of those times. As we have for many years, we will continue to make "GO" and "NOGO" announcements one or two days before every launch.
And please renew your MTMA membership, or join up if you've been lurking this forum for years and never flew rockets with us. If you do decide to join, please be aware that both the dues and the form are due back to us. NAR Membership is required. Some people send just the dues, or just the form. That won't work. It is all explained here: https://mtma.groups.io/g/public/message/4922 In the meantime, build another model rocket. And set your clocks this weekend. -Wolf |

March 11 ,& 12 Launch status

Thoughts on the launch possibility this weekend? Looks like snow showers thru early am on Saturday, low clouds hanging on a little later. Then temperatures stay low thru Sunday. Wind early Saturday from NNW @ 10mph, diminishing and shifting from E @ 5mph by afternoon on Sunday.
Are you going to wait and see if any changes? Try it and see what it's like at the field (Sat / Sun)? Or call it and hope for better conditions in 2 weeks? |

Absolutely a park flyer on these motors. Plus a Chute Tamer set to open at 300’. I’ve flown my Loc Aura and Weasel there on F motors and recovered them in our field….

This one won’t go nearly as high or as fast! Douglas A Paroff On Jan 16, 2023, at 3:49 PM, Wolfram v.Kiparski <astronwolf@...> wrote:

Big doesn't mean screaming high flights. Fly it wherever you want, but Doug did say 700-1500 feet. It's a park flier with the motors he was planning on using.

AGREED. It would probably end up in somebody's back yard on the southside....

looks a little large for MTMA field. I would go to a skybuster/Notra launch on the west side or Tripoli-Springfield 0hio.

The launch for this weekend has been scrubbed. Occasionally, we have experienced exceptionally nice days in winter. This weekend is not one of them.

I tried to order a DARC-1 this morning using the coupon code. It applied the coupon (launch2022) but showed a $0.00 discount. That's okay. Plenty of other savings this week! Still have 2 more orders to be delivered!
Have a great Holiday everybody! -----Original Message-----

launch2022 Supposedly the discount code works just once. If you haven't used it yet, now may be a good time. I ended up ordering a few PSII parts for a hefty discount, plus the Blue Origin builders' kit and an Antar. The box art for the Antar is a hoot! More sale stuff: The Estes Bull Pup 12D has been 42% off on Amazon for a while now. If you have ever wanted to build an MX-774 "Hi Roc" scale model, the Bullpup kit has the parts to do that. |
