Armstrong Museum
Last updated: 2023–08–01

WSR members supported a build and fly at the Armstrong Museum. We had a great day on Saturday at the Neil Armstrong Museum Launch. Very low winds kept rockets in the field. Lee B., Randy B., Jeff F., Joe S., and Todd S. provided build and fly assistance. Also, Tom S. and Pete B. provided demo flights. Guest flyers had the opportunity to fly as many flights that they wanted because of the donation of motors. There were 19 first time flyers. These first time flyers were able to load their rockets again and fly their rocket again and again. Todd had the flights with the D motors in his Red Flare rocket. Landed right on the field. Pete had his “Theme Launch” going on. He flew his Saturn V twice, NASA SLS, Mercury Redstone, Blue Origin, X Wing Fighter, Space X Starship, UFO, Interceptor and Alien.

Sunday was a kind of different day. Weather forecast had scattered showers coming in the afternoon. The wind was tricky. With the storms approaching, wind changed directions many times. Keeping us busy changing rod directions. We had some of the rockets land on the other side of the museum. Finally had a small rain shower between 3:30 and 4:00pm. After setting up the launch equipment after the rain, we only had a few flights until we closed down at 5:00pm. Lee B., Randy B., Carter de W., Barry M., and Joe S. provided build and fly assistance. Again today, Tom S. was helping with demo flights. Lee launched his Saturn V with the Micro Max 1/8A motor. Joe was launching his Vertigo on D motors several times. Sunday, we had a total of 12 first time flyers.

Randy was interviewed by the local TV station. Thanks to all the helped.

May 9 (Sat) – ROCI HPR Sport Launch
AMA IAC, 5151 East Memorial Drive – Muncie, Indiana 47302

We have been given the opportunity by our friends at ROCI to provide a high-power launch at the AMA International Aeromodelling Center in Muncie, Indiana on Saturday, May 9 from 11 am to 5 pm. Setup will be at 10 am at the field. For familiarity’s sake, we will be using mostly WSR equipment (pads and launch system) so we will be loading gear at eRockets Friday night (a time will be published later).

The waiver ceiling is 6000’ AGL, so plan your flights accordingly, including deployment regimes and recovery.

FIRST THINGS FIRST: Indiana’s health professionals have decided to allow gatherings of 25 people. While at the field, we are requiring the following to adhere to the local regulations:

1.       While you are on-site, you MUST wear a mask or similar suitable face-covering AT ALL TIMES.
2.       All vehicles must be parked with a minimum of 6’ of open space between each other. So if you see an opening between two cars, please do not pull between them and select another spot to park.
3.       You should plan to bring your own food and refreshments for consumption at the field. There will be no communal water bottles or coolers.
4.       Whoever is running the LCO table will be required to wear gloves at all times; a supply will be made available. (Individual members are strongly encouraged to bring their own gloves; they can be the same ones that you would use to assemble an engine reload.)
5.       As always, please do your best to maintain social distancing when moving about the field, the prep area, and the flight line.
6. If more than 25 members show up, someone will have to leave or you will be asked to return at a later time.
7. We will have a signup sheet. With the flyer’s names and phone numbers.
8. Also remember to use hand sanitizer. Bring a bottle or we will have a couple of bottles on the RSO and LCO table.
9. Comply with all NAR safety rules.

Lee Berry put in a great deal of work to make this launch happen and enlisted a number of people to cover the necessary bases with the FAA, the AMA, and ROCI. Please give them an air high-five when you see them.

We are keeping a close eye on the weather. Conditions are borderline acceptable right now, but the main concern is wind; it will be coming out of the northwest at a potential sustained 15mph with gusts to 20.

We will make a final go/no-go decision no earlier than 8 pm on Friday night, so stay tuned to our normal communication channels. We do not want to have people driving 2 hours to Muncie only to get blown out. Keep your fingers crossed!

May 16 (Sat) – Sport Launch CANCELED
Per ODH guidelines.

May 23-25 (Sat-Mon) – NSL 2020 POSTPONED
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, NSL 2020 will be postponed until 2021. See the NAR website.

July 20 (Sat) – NMUSAF Space Day Mass Build/Fly
National Museum of the US Air Force. 9am-5pm; setup at 8am. This is our annual All Hands On Deck mass build/fly and we are going to attempt to build and fly 750 Astra III rockets. The Museum will provide the manpower to assist with the build, which will take place in the middle of building 2 under the noses of the B-52 and C-124. As always, we will set up 3 launch racks outside, and we will need a number of you (many have volunteered) to assist guests in prepping their rockets for flight. This year, we are going with a one-person end-to-end method, where one person checks the rocket, loads the motor/igniter/plug, inserts wadding, packs the recovery system, and verifies the flight cards. There will be at least 5 stations for this so the lines should go quickly. We will also need 2 traffic directors (one to steer people to prep stations and another to send them to the pads) as well as 3 pad wranglers (responsible for racking and connecting leads). Members are welcome to do their own demo flights but only after the guests have all been sent to the front of the line, and if you do fly there is a HARD 500′ ceiling. Members may also bring their best rockets for static display inside the museum; 5 tables will be set up near the Bob Hope exhibit between buildings 1 and 2. We need your help! Please take this opportunity to show the museum and its visitors that WSR is THE go-to team for rocketry!

January 20 (Sat) – Rip Rap Rd. field (Lee Berry)
What a very interesting launch. Seems like we had a lot of unsuccessful flights. By the afternoon, the Rip Rap Road field was very muddy with all the snow melting. But we did get in 44 total flights. There was a total of 10 flyers and we had 2 brand new flyers for the first time. Welcome, Paul and Bernie to the exciting sport of model rocketry. Our first rack of rockets, I was first off the pad with my “Finny” custom-built rocket on a B6-4. Jay tried to get his rocket in the air but had an igniter problem. Here are some of the other rockets for the day. Justin launched 1 rocket and then he left. I think he left because he did not want to get his new BMW hit with a rocket. Our new flyers, Paul and Bernie, both flew 2 flights. Bernie flew his Trajector with a 2 stage booster with F15 Estes black powder motors. The chute deployed and drifted into the neighborhood to the west. Jay and Bernie made the trip to recover the rocket and bring it back. Zach launched 2 rockets. On the first flight, the chute did not deploy and we will say it “Yard Darted”. The second flight with his PAC 3 with a G74 screamed off the pad but still landed in the field to the south of us. Tom S was 2 out of 3. His glider with a B4-2 did a perfect Loop “D” Loop and landed on the other side of the field. The rocket with the D21-7 ripped off the pad and safely recovered. His third flight was a fantastic “CATO” sending parts of the rocket all over the pad area. Carter launched 6 rockets. Jay also launched 6 rockets. His radio-controlled glider launched twice but only got in the “AIR” once. Jay also launched a 2 engine cluster of MicroMax engines and several other rockets with MicroMax engines. Lee did manage to get 7 rockets in the sky and Bill E also launched 7 rockets. But Mike R had the most flights for the day. He had a total of 8 flights. He will have to make repairs to his fleet just like a lot of other rocketeers. Be sure everybody brings your broken rockets to Tuesday build night. Randy has all the parts you will need in STOCK.

March 3 (Sat) – Rip Rap Rd. field (Dave Combs)
While the big kids were at the big field with their big rockets, A small contingent of WSR members went to the Rip Rap Road field for some low-power festivities. Loopy and Dave spent all day burning BP, and we got a visit from Randy (who flew a cool dual ring fin model) and Mark M. (who launched his screw-together 3-D printed rocket and a couple of others). In all we burned 24 motors on 22 flights:

April 28 (Sat) – Federal Rd. Field (LB)
The weather was cold, windy, and overcast. We still managed to get some rockets in the air. We had a total of 42 flights. I even heard that some of the rocketeers had never laughed so hard at a launch. More about laughs later. Most flights landed far away, almost to the southern tree line. Had a couple of flights that landed in the next field to the south of us. After setting up, I put the first flight in the air. “Finny” on a B6-4. With the wind, we were using smaller chutes, and when “Finny” landed, he broke a fin. I also launched “Orange Transport”. Still using a smaller chute, it landed and broke a fin. My third flight of the day was “LIL Weasel” on a B6-4. Did not fly very high and the chute deployed almost on the ground. Jay launched 3 rockets. Sprint XL on a D12-5, Goblin on an E30-7, and a two-stage rocket, D12-0 to a B6-4. Jay said he was glad he did not use a C6-7 in the top stage. Todd S launched his “Purple Sparkle 4” on an H135W to 1590 feet. Steve B from Frankfort, launched his Heavy Bullpup on a C11-3. Tom S put his Orange Crush up on a C11-5. Ron S got in some long walks. His rockets seemed to drift very far south and into the next field. Ron gets the “10,000 Step Award”. He flew his Sprint XL on a D12-5, Goblin Upscale, and Hawk on E30-4’s. But his best flight was his Viper on 3 Estes F15-6. Carter d, if you want to say, got in 6 flights. I had an old pack of C6-5’s that I thought would CATO. Sure enough, the first one CATOed in his Dare to be Square. Very little damage so he loaded another old C6-5 in the rocket again. Again the motor CATOed. Very little damage again so for the third time, he loaded the last old C6-5 in the rocket. They say “Third Times a Charm”. Carter put the rocket on the pad and this time, the CATO damaged the rocket, the motor split from aft to forward along the motor tube. Carter did say that he had the technology to rebuild. His “Sheesh Kabob” came off the pad and did some “loop de loop”. The upscale version, Swoosh Kabob had a great flight on a D12-5. But his best flight was his Weasel on a G40-10. Even though Carter is a high power certified flyer, this was his first “G” motor that he has flown. Michael R had to outdo Carter with his Dare to be Scared. He flew his on an E15-4. The motor “Chuffed” so hard that it almost came off the rod. Michael managed to get in 5 flights. He said, “I have plenty of rockets loaded, but having to walk way too far to recover them”. His “RX-7” 2 stage rocket blazed in the sky with a B6-0 to and 1/2A6. Dave C went all out with his 5 flights. Augie with a single E16-6, Batrok on an A6-4, Teros with a B6-4. After those flights, it went downhill. Or should I say “Down the River”? His “RocketTail” rocket had a huge plastic egg filled with candy for the kids. The Aerotech F67-4 lifted the one pound of candy off the pad. Hopefully, we will see Ron’s video. The rocket did not deploy the parachute and it splashed down in the creek sending on the candy floating down the river. Some of the rocketeers started cleaning up the wreckage and candy from the creek. Someone had big rubber boots picking up the candy. We will say he slipped and the water was deep and over the top of his boots. Everyone should always bring extra shoes and socks to a launch because you will never know what may happen. Then Dave launched his TEROS on an H123W. The up part was good but when the chute was deployed, the nose cone got tangled in the chute. The rocket came in a little too fast and broke two fins. We finally at one point of the day, had a clearing in the sky. I told Paul that it was time for his Level 2 flight. He had his extended 4″ LOC 4-Banana with Perfectflight SL100 altimeter. Up it went over 3900 feet and landed just southeast of the launch pad. Paul brought the rocket back and after the final examination, he passed his L2 flight. Congratulations to Paul. Last but not least, you have Bill E. He launched and launched and launched. Ended up with a total of 12 flights. He gets the “Most flights for the Day Award”. Three of his flights we all can remember. The LCO announced his rocket by mistake and called it “R2 DoDo”. R2’s chute did not deploy and splatted on the ground. SO SAD! His Long John Silver on an A3-4T yard darted and will have to be renamed because it will be a little shorter. Then he flew another rocket that he said was an A8-3 but only went up maybe 50 feet. After looking at the motor, he only had a 1/2A in the rocket. I will change the flight card. After the launch, we headed to the Purple Monkey for pizza.

May 5 (Sat) – Lowry Rd. Field (LB)
Due to planting on the Federal Road field, we moved our launch to our low power Lowry Road field. Winds were light and variable. (At Times) There was a total of 13 members and the Robinson family that was there for the first time. The Robinson’s flew 2 rockets for the first time. We flew 2 clusters and 3 two-stage rockets. Mike R flew a bracket (brace) of all the motors from 1/8A to F. Believe it or not, we had a total of 96 flights and used 100 motors. I started the day out by flying the first rocket of the day. I managed to get 5 flights in the air. Jay launched 9 rockets. Jay was trying out a new design for rockets and soon will be at eRockets. (TOP SECRET). Jared put in 11 flights. The “Birdie” rocket really ripped off the pad on an A10-3T. Can’t believe this either, Randy B flew 7 times. He flew his SATELLITE KILLER 3 times. After the third time, we will say the SATELLITE won the battle. Gary B got there in the afternoon and put in 2 flights. Tom S flew 3 flights including his NCR LaserHawk on a G125T for a very nice flight. Mark M brought out his 3D-printed rockets and flew 6 total flights. Steve B from Frankfort, quickly put up 5 flights. His rocket named “Crazy Frog”, flew twice. Once on a G75 Metalstorm and a G76. Also got his “Gizmo” up on a G67R. Justin B was back from vacation and got in 8 flights. His most spectacular flight was his Circus Act on a G80-7. The rocket landed in the neighbor’s backyard. That is all I am going to say about that!. Phil Q flew 3 flights. The Argent V2.0 flew twice with G64-7W and the Chute Release. Dave C scrambled to put up 5 rockets. NO CANDY THIS TIME???? Michael R put in 14 flights. Launched every motor from Micromax to the big F motor. His rocket named “The Lillian S” flew on an F26-6FJ. Carter d kept flying all day long. He put in 16 flights. He flew his “Square Banana” and the nose cone came off losing his altimeter. He went out to pick up the rocket and started looking for the altimeter. He finally started to hear the beeping, went right over to it, and picked it up. He also flew his “Kabob Family” rockets. He introduced his new member of the family, “Square Kabob”. He also flew a Dare to be Scared on an E15. And that is all I am going to say about that!!!! We were all done by 6:00 pm and packed up to go home. Thanks to everyone that helped with our launch.

June 16 (Sat) – Rip Rap Rd. field (LB)

We all were looking forward to a great day of rocketry. Weather report looked pretty good. Little did we know that weather can change in a minute or should I say by the afternoon. By 3:30pm, we looked off to the west and see nothing but black thunderstorm clouds coming toward us. So we had to put all the equipment in the truck and call it a day. But the highlight of the afternoon was a visit from the ICE CREAM TRUCK. On a hot day, the ice cream went down petty good. Even with the bad weather coming in, we still got 74 flights in. I started the day off with my creation of “Finny” on a B6-4. At Naram last year, I received an Estes “Red Nova”. I finally decided to get it in the air. I used an adapter and flew the rocket on a C6-3. I launched a total of 8 rockets for the day. Justin B had a lot of fun with the new 24/60 reload motors. He flew the F51, F62 and the F63. These new 24/60 motors really rock. Justin had a total of 4 flights. Randy B got there a little late but he got 4 flights in the air. Dave C managed to get 7 flights. He even tried to have a Bull Pup drag race with me. His rocket took off and mine just stayed on the pad. So Dave won!!! Carter D brought out his “Kabob Family”. His flights for the day were 8. Bill E brought out a lot of Clones. His “Mach 10” was designed to glide. We will just say that we did not see any GLIDE. Let’s give Bill the trophy for the most flights. He had a total of 10. Joe H had a pretty good day. His best flights were Ventris on the new F67, his Tomahawk on the F67 and the F-9 Falcon on an E9-6. Mark V put in 3 flights and Mark M put in 4 flights with his 3D printed rocket. Mike R flew his really nice Nike Apache. He also flew 2 rockets with clusters. His Optima with 2 E9-6’s and the Astron Cobra on 3 B6-6 for two really nice flights. Tom S launched his “Scrambler” with an egg aboard, twice. The second launch with the 36″ chute had a very long duration time. Jared launched 5 flight. Aadi brought his Super Big Bertha out to fly. He flew it twice with Aerotech E15’s. Claire and Dominic each launched one rocket. Total motors used at this launch was 77. Believe it or not, we did not launch a G motor. Thanks to everyone that helped at the launch.

July 21 (Sat) – National Museum of the US Air Force (LB)

Here is the report everyone is waiting on. I am not sure how many rockets were built but I know we did have some left over. We had lots of delays. The rain delayed us twice and by 4:00pm, ended our launch. We also had over an hour delay on a fire alarm. Everyone had to exit the museum and it took over an hour for all guests to go through security to get back in the museum. Flights are as follows:

295 total flights including 7 club members flights.
288 Astra III guest flights (rockets that were handed out)
241 were first time flyers; 47 were not.

I would like to thank everyone that helped with the build, display table and launch area.

July 22 (Sun) – Summer Moon Festival at Armstrong Air & Space Museum (LB)

November 10 (Sat) – Federal Rd. Field (LB)

Very interesting weather. Weather report said one thing and was something else. We had nice sunny skies and just a little bit of breeze. Wind was coming from NorthWest. We did have some long walks but had plenty of room for the rockets to land. There was a total of 29 flights and 35 motors used. We had 13 flyers and we even had some spectators at the field.University of Cincinnati rocket team came to the field to launch some rockets and for certification flights. Nate M launched a 2 stager with an Estes F15 to an Estes E16 for a nice flight. He also launched a V2 on a D12-5. Andy T passed his Level 2 written test and then passed his L2 flight on a J270. Congratulations Andy. Then Patrick B had a successful Level 1 flight on a H219. Congratulations to Andy. Thanks for attending our launch.

Dave C brought out his Astron 13mm 2 stager. A10-0 to an A10-3 in the upper stage. He also launched a 2 engine cluster named Dual Moon. Dave had a total of 3 flights. Carter d had 2 flights. Nice flight on his Polar Viper on an I161W. Jay B put up his 1/4 scale Patriot on an I357T. Did not have enough magic powder to get the chute out but the rocket did not have any damage and will fly again. Will R launched his Ariel with the snap away rail buttons on an I435T. Zach B made it out to the field. Glad to see you again. Zach brought out his Franken Rocket. First launched on a H283ST and wanted to get another flight in the sky. So he decided to put an I205W and go again. The shock cord broke and the chute with the nose cone drifted away. Lee B launched 2 rockets. His Harpoon seemed to have a weak C motor and did not deploy the streamer. Tom Z decided to try for his Level 1 on his Arcas with a H135W. He has flown this rocket on a F and a G so it was time to put the H in the rocket. Rocket went to 2800 feet and even with the Jolly Logic chute release, landed way down the field. After Dave found the rocket, brought it back for inspection and another successful Level 1 cert. Congratulations Tom. Tom S just wanted to launch his Little Joe 1 successful. This scale rocket had 4 E15-7W Aerotech motors. After trying to get the rocket in the air maybe 7 different times and several engine starters, up it went and all 4 motors lighted. .After that flight, Tom said he was done for the day and the long drive was well worth it. Another highlight of the day was Justin B. He managed to get 2 flights in the air. His one flight was his Stinger on the new 24/60 F63R. But the flight everyone was talking about was his Dragon. This rocket is like 8 foot tall and 5.5 inches in diameter. He put a K805G in the bottom end and up it went to over 4700 feet in the sky. The main parachute deployed and he really did not have a very long walk. But the rocketeer with the most flights, goes to Mike R. He ended up with a total of 10 flights. Thanks to all that made this a really nice launch. Thanks to all that helped set up and tear down. Below is the total of all the motors used and by the way, we did not use any “G” motors. Thanks…

2017 Reports

February 4 – Sport Launch, Federal Rd. field (Carter de Werd)
My fingers have finally thawed out enough to type up the flight report for the WSR launch on Saturday, February 4th. For those of you who couldn’t make it to the field it was cold out there. And if you weren’t there, you weren’t the only ones not to make it to the launch, the predicted clear skies and low winds didn’t make it out to the field either.

Despite the bracing weather we had 29 launches from 8 intrepid rocketeers. Leading the pack was the indefatigable Mike Rhode with 8 launches. In a three way tie for a distant second place were Cater de Werd, Tim Mauk and Jay Berry with 4 each. Lee Berry and Justin Bray launched three each. Bringing up the rear were Randy Boadway with 2 launches, and Logan Hermann and Joe Hermann with one launch each.

Despite the challenging weather we had some very interesting launches. Lee Berry started off the launch with the WSR rocket on a D12-3.

Jay Berry launched his G helicopter rocket on a G38-7. Randy (eating crow) Boadway insisted that it would shred on the way up, but the rocket held together and stayed aloft for over 90 seconds. I don’t say this often, but good job Jay.

Joe Hermann’s single launch was a very special one; he certified L1 high power. Joe launched a WAC Corporal on an H195T and used a chute release. It was a very nice flight. Congratulations Joe!

Tim Mauk had several nice flights. He launched his Little Joe II on an F44-4. The rocket ripped off the pad for an exhilarating flight. The Little Joe II has a lot of little fiddly bits hanging off of it and Tim found only one small part missing after recovery. Good job building Tim! But Tim had a second great launch that day. He put up his LOC EZI-65 rocket on an I65. The motor burned for about 9 seconds and was a very impressive thing to watch. Great job Tim.

Justin Bray had a challenging day. His X-wing rocket (four A10P motors in the pods and a central D12-5) suffered a Cato on the D12. Sadly, Justin’s difficulties didn’t end there. Justin attempted to certify L2 on an R3 with a J420R. The rocket lifted off on a beautiful red flame, but failed to deploy the parachute properly and damaged a fin on landing which resulted in a failed L2 attempt.

Randy Boadway successfully tested a Semroc prototype on several 13mm A motors.

Logan Hermann put up his Logan’s Sky Hook on a B6-4 for his lone flight of the day.

And finally, Carter de Werd went for the SpaceX award with his Sidewinder D. At a previous launch this rocket went unstable, so Carter added some nose weight. Apparently it wasn’t enough. Shortly after leaving the rod the rocket looped several times and then headed toward the ground. About 15 feet from impact it reversed direction and began to head back up. The smoke charge made it look like it was still under power and trying to land upright just like the Falcon 9. The rocket settled gently to the ground just as the nose popped off. OK, more nose weight next time.

We burned 33 motors at the launch. Here is the breakdown:

April 1 (Sat) – Rocket into Spring at Armstrong Air and Space Museum (Lee Berry)
We had a COLD day today. Overcast, a small breeze, causing a wind chill of 36 degrees. But we still got in 74 flights. We even had 12 new first time flyers with the build session. The sun did come out about 3:00pm to warm things up a little. Justin put in a total of 13 flights. Justin was even brave enough to launch a 2 stage rocket, not once, but twice and recovered all parts both times. Lee had also 13 flights for the day. Jay launched 9 rockets. He launched his Gyroc, Mini Mars Lander and Mini Orbital Transport. Gary and Emmett Beaver had a combined flights of 7. Colin enjoyed the afternoon. He did get in 6 flights. Carter also launched 6 rockets. He launched his “E.D.” rocket twice. The first flight ended up in a tree. Justin (we called him Justin 2) came and launched his “Executioner” twice on the D12-3. Both flights recovered in the field. One of his rockets was not able to return to us. Tom got in 3 flights for the day. After the launch, we were talking to museum and they said that they had 350 people go through the museum today. Overall we had a great day. Thanks to every that helped today at the launch….

May 13 (Sat) – Sport Launch, Lowry Rd. field (LB)
WOW! WHAT A DAY!!!! Clear skies and hardly any wind!!!!

We got to use a brand new location for our launch today. A field that was 1/2 mile by 1/2 mile. We did not have a waiver, so we were limited to a “G” motor. Thanks to Preston Mote for the use of the field. We had 17 flyers, 97 flights and using 110 motors. Below is the list of flyers with their flight totals.

1) Lee B.- Started the day off with the WSR703 rocket on a D12-3. Also flew his 2 stage Rookie for a good flight. Then Quadzilla for a total of 3 flights.

2) Chuck J.- 1 flight with his Thunderstrike on a D12-7 for a perfect flight.

3) Jay B. – 7 total flights including his MOAB for 2 flights, Space Shuttle on a B6-2 for interesting flight with the glider landing inside of a car. His Large Sidewinder with a G76G made great flight and landed right behind us. Jay gets the award for having to walk the farthest. His 2 stage rocket drifted over St Rt 571.

4) Emmett B.- Had a total of 6 flights, his “Dare to Be Square” on a B, C and then a D motor. Also flew 2 of his Crayon rockets. Emmett gets the award for closest to pad.

5) Clay B.- Clay had 3 flights on the same rocket “Dare to be Scared” on those special numbered E12’s. After the third flight, the rocket is no longer with us.

6) Joe H.- Joe was the “G” motor man today. A total of 12 flights. He flew his Ventis twice on G74’s, his WAC on G77 and a G74 and flew his Panavia twice with the Estes F15. Congratulations on the most flight for the day!!!!!!!!!

7) Antoine- Thanks for flying with us for the first time. With a total of 6 fights, Antoine started slow with his Baby Bertha and Astra III on “B”motors. After getting braver and braver on each flight, he decided to try the larger “C” motors. Congratulations on some amazing flights.

8) Dave C.- Dave flew 6 flights. He flew his Zenith two stage rocket on “B” motors and flew his “Mr. Eggcitement” on E18 and landed way across the field. He brought the rocket back and the EGG was not broken. Way to go DAVE!!!!

9) Justin B.- He had 9 flights. His “Circus Act” ripped off the pad on a G76Green. He flew his 2 stage Navaho for the first time on an A in the first stage to an A on the second stage. Then Lee dared him to use a C in the first stage. Justin prepped the rocket with the C in the first stage and a “A” motor in the top. Off the pad it went, while everyone was watching the first stage hit his car, nobody was watching the second stage and we LOST the rocket. SORRY DUDE!!!

10) Carter d.- Carter came in second place for the most flights for the day. He had 11 total flights. His V2 on an E18 decided to come apart right after motor ignition. Maybe he can repair it? The Phoenix flew on a D12-3 for interesting flight and his Sidewinder on a D12-5. The Sidewinder decided to Lawn Dart but we think with a little tape and glue, it might fly again.

11) Steve B.- Thanks for coming to our launch all the way from Kentucky. He gets the award for traveling the most miles. He flew 5 flights. His most unbelievable flight was his 8 motor cluster with a flash pan. 1 central D motor and 7 C motors. Sweet Flight. Also flew his LOC Something on a cluster of 2 D12-5. He scared us all with his Crazy Frog rocket. The delay was JUST a little TOO long but right before hitting the ground, the chute deployed and saved the rocket.

12) Mark M.- Mark flew 5 flights. He was using a computer in his rockets and can’t wait until he downloads to give us the data that he received.

13) Gary B.- He managed to get 1 flight in on his Scoin on a F27 Redline.

14) Nate J.- Nate got in 3 flights. Hope you had fun today launching with us!!!!!

15) Justin 2- He had a total of 10 flights. His Weasel flew on a F27 Redline. I tried to get him to launch the rocket on a G motor. Maybe the next launch he might launch on a bigger motor.

16) Mark V.- With a total of 6 flights, I liked his flight of the ARV Condor with 2 gliders.

17) Mike R. – Mike was just passing thru, but got 3 flights in the air. His first flight was a Blue Jay glider or should we say a “B” motor?

Had a great day with very little wind and blue skies. We managed to get a lot of flights in the air. Our next launch will be our contest on May 20 and 21. The land owner of Lowry Road Field has given us permission to launch on his field next weekend. Should be another great weekend.

July 8 (Fri) – WVSOAR Launch (LB)
Had a Great time at WVSOAR today. Congratulations to Rob on his successful Level 2 flight. His 3″ bird went up on a J425R to 4300′ and landed only 50 feet from the pad. NICE JOB!! Colin flew his 4″ bird on an I366R. Main chute did not deploy but rocket landed ok with just the drogue chute. I launched my SA-14 on a F25 but the shock cord broke. Then I launched my AAMRAM on a I180W and the chute did not come out of the tube. No damage to both rockets and both will fly another day. Joe H flew all kinds of rockets. You will have to ask him how many steps he took today! All of his rockets ended up in the next field over. Phil Q was the man of the day! He first flew his SLS Mars Snooper on a H128W. That is correct, A H128W! Then he topped that flight with his 4″ Goblin with a H178DM “Sparky” motor. After ripping off the pad with sparks flying everywhere, the chute release deployed the chute and the rocket landed in the field. Thanks to Joe and Phil for going with me…………..

September 9 (Sat) – Wright Brothers Aero Carnival (LB)

Just wanted to write about the FUN we had at the Aero Carnival at Huffman Flying Field. We started out with The Colonel meeting with us and even talking to Collin. The Colonel then went over to LCO table and launched the first rocket. By 10:30 we were off and running. Building rockets and even got to launch a few before our scheduled time. The first launch time was at 12:15 to 1:00. Everything went great with no problems. We ended a little before 1:00 and then there was a 4 plane fly over. Still building rockets, by 1:15, we had a Boy Scout Troop that needed to launch rockets and then be at the Air Force Museum by 2:00. We were not scheduled to launch until 2:15. I asked for special permission for them to launch between 1:30 to 1:40. The launch was granted and up went the rockets. We got down to the last 2 rockets and all went DOWN HILL. Off to the north of the tent city, a micro burst of wind, looked like a small tornado, came twisting, roaring down the line of tents. Throwing tents in the air, along with lots of paper. The wind burst, crossed the road heading toward our tent. Everybody grabbed our tent to keep it from blowing away. The two tents next to us went up in the air and it looked like the twisting wind headed around us and up in the air. Still had all kinds of paper twisting in the circle of wind as it went skyward. There were a few people injured and had to take one person to the hospital. The park service decided to close down the event. No one in our group had any injuries. Justin did launched his Nike Smoke on a F23-4BJ and Jay launched his small glider on a 1/2A motor. We did get to launch 55 rockets. We then packed up our equipment and took it back to eRockets. This was another very interesting Aero Carnival. Last year at this event, a severe thunderstorm closed the event.

September 20 (Wed) – Cub Scout Pack 116 Build/Fly, Far Hills Community Church (PQ)

Five members came out to Far Hills Community Church to help Cub Scout Pack 116 with their Pack rocket launch last evening. Joe Hermann, Brian Guzek, Jay Berry, Randy Boadway, and myself helped 25 first time fliers launch their first model rocket, while launching a total of 69 rockets.One of the parents brought a vintage X-Ray rocket he had built when he was his son’s age for him to fly. Brian and Jay both flew their gliders and helicopters. The gliders flew great, the helicopters; not so much. Joe flew a Dare to be Square a couple of times.

November 11 (Sat) – Sport Launch @ Federal Rd. Field (LB)
Things did not start out the way we wanted them to go. We got a late start because of the work that the farmer was doing to the field. Being a November day, we still had a pretty nice day. Here are some highlights of the day.

I started the day with the WSR703 rocket on a D12-3. Jay launched his 3 stage rocket but did not go as planned. John launched his “Door Knob” on a J415W. Mike also got in the race for staged flight with a rocket that had 2 stages. Mark brought out his up scaled “Sizzler” on an I2858R. Tim used a J270W in his “Norad” to go to an altitude of 5700 feet. Ed from Columbus club, launched his “BBX” on a J425R motor. We also had 5 certification flights. University of Cincinnati had 2 students in attendance. One student completed their Level 1 and the other student, a successful Level 2 cert flight. Bob from Columbus club had a Level 1 cert flight completed. A new entry to the HPR scene, Zac, after flying his rocket on a G74, decided to put an H135DM in his second flight for his successful Level 1 flight. Welcome to the “Rocketeer World”. The big flight of the day was Dave with his Level 2 flight. His scratch built “Mega Bandit” flew on a J350W to 3019 feet for his successful Level 2 flight.

We came up with 65 total flights. Here is list of rocketeers with the number of flights that they had: Carter- 1 Dave C- 3 Tom S – 2 Lee B- 3 Justin B- 3 Jay B- 4 John K- 4 Mark V- 3 Mike R- 6 Tim M- 5 Zac-3 Ed H-2 Bob C-1 UofC- 3

December 16 (Sat) HPR Sport Launch @ Federal Field (LB)

We started the day or should I say, the morning off with attending the movie “Star Wars”. After the movie, we went out to the field to launch rockets. We had clear skies but it was a little breezy. I started the day with the rebuilt WSR703 rocket. Last launch, the rocket landed in the creek. I had to replace the centering rings and motor tube. I decided to make the rocket a cluster of 2 24mm motors. I used 2 D12-5 to get the rocket into the air. The rocket landed all the way up to the land owners driveway. I launched a total of 3 rockets. Jay keeping in the theme of Star Wars, launched a R2D2 and the Death Star. Tim M got in 5 flights. Zach launched 2 flights with one of them being a new Aerotech H283 Super Blue Thunder. Bill E flew 3 rockets. Dave C had his Crayon rocket on the pad with a F40W. We will just say something went wrong with the motor and came in a little too HOT!!!!! Justin B launched 2 rockets. Justin knows that he needs to work a little bit more on his “Ring Rocket”. Tom S used a D21-7 in his rocket that ripped off the pad. Carter got in 2 flights including Sammy Pooh and his Indestructible V. Nate put his 2 stage rocket on the pad. First engine lighted but the top engine did not light. Dave had one of the Boy Scouts launch his rocket for the merit badge. Ethan launched his rocket successfully twice to complete the launch part of the merit badge. The U of Cincinnati club was in attendance. Krystal L passed the written L2 test. Then she launched her rocket on a J270. The rocket went up in the air, the chute came out and landed for a successful L2 flight. We had a total of 25 flights and 27 motors.
