Phil Stein - 27 Sep 2004 01:12 GMT
Congratulations Jeff!

The motors are 38mm H144-17A, I305-17A & J528-17A.  The 17 is the max
delay setting. Loki has an adjustment tool to set the delays to 5, 8
& 11 seconds.

I tried a J528 manufacturers demo & it worked great!

Why is it 150% the thrust of the popular AT (errortech) J350?

What is the total impulse (ILP code)?

How does the MSRP compare?

Jerry

Just the facts, ma'am.

It's a 740J528.  Actually the TMT data shows the average thrust a bit
higher, and I may change the designation to reflect this.  Burn time is
 1.3 seconds, total impulse 740 N-s.  MSRP is $39.99.

Duh because it was designed that way.  Who needs another J350?  Since
AT is your standard, why don't you ask why it isn't a J570?

740ns 15% J

The ONE tech reply when synthisized into ILP gives:

LR 38mm 740 J 528 - 17 A

If I understand this correctly, some vendors require a LEUP before you can
purchace from them, right?  I would equate this with a vendor who requests your
SS# for a purchase or procedure.  They're free to ask for it, and you're just
as free to find another vendor.  If people stop patronizing shops that make you
jump through hoops, then those vendors will need to re-evaluate their policy.
If they don't, then they'll go the way of the dinosaur...

A variation of that is happening.

Rocketeers are zealots. The stronger zealots get the illegal
(extralegal, unneeded, whatever) permits thus bringing the ATF madness
on us (by their own actions) and the less motivated simply go aaway.

It has acted as a zealot screen so we now have 2500 screaming whiners in
HPR and the regular people, tens of thousands of them, just go away.

Why don't you go with them? You obviously don't like the "zealots", so I'm sure
you'd be much happier with the alleged "tens of thousands" who just go away.

He needs that perception well laid whether it is said or not, implied or
not.

He engages in "linkage" beteween the message and the messenger.

2500 HPR in TRA is a FACT.

This does leave out another group that is probably the largest. Those who
decide that if they want to mail order the motors, they get the paperwork
required or if they just want to fly, buy the motors at the launch.

Me, I always fly at club launches so I let the vendor worry about the feds.
I buy and fly. No muss no fuss.

No, it does nothing about whether or not it is illegal, immora, or possibly
fattening with respect to the ATF shenanigans. However my hobby needs, and I
suspect a fair number of others, are fully met.

They are necesarily on the TRA/NAR HPR roles at this time.

NO lone rangers. Zero.

Lone Rangers are 98% of the market. Ask Wal-Mart.

I would ask you to provide any verifiable proof however I don't see the

Considerthis.

"Affiliated" Estes product consumption is perhaps 6000 people x $300 a
year average or $1,800,000. Respectable. Estes does over $40,000,000 in
sales.

That is affiliated roughly 4.5% of the market.

If you extrapolate that to HPR and assume HALF as many folks could be
lone rangers (complexity, cost, motivation), then given there are 3000
HPR folks generating $800,000 in sales, then if that were 10% of the
L.R. market (vs4.5% for MR) then one would expect about $8,000,000 in
annual sales.

I could break even on my share of that.

They have nothing to do with high power rocketry. Wal-Mart sells RTF toys to
children -- and in most cases, even those kids can't legally fly their toys
outside of club launches.

That's probably less commonly true elsewhere than
in California, where CSFM regulations specifically
require consent of one's local fire safety AHJ for
even model rockets - which our local fire marshals
are often more willing to give for organized clubs
than for "lone rangers".

Which didn't exist? The requirement for approval, or the
reluctance to approve individuals rather than groups?

There was a FD verbal notice requirement.

The change to permit was a very bad thing for compliance. Rocketry
seemed to hum right along though.

That's part of your problem right there, Jerry. You seem completely incapable
of accepting the fact that things change. Regulations change. Government
policies change. Public perception and attitudes change. Everyone else in the
hobby adapts and moves forward. Jerry just whines. Poor Jerry.
David Weinshenker - 28 Sep 2004 20:28 GMT

And we're supposed to view these as irresistable
forces of nature beyond human power to modify?

> Public perception and attitudes change.

A free country is one where one has the right to do
unpopular things in spite of adverse "public attitudes".

As American citizens and residents, it is our born duty
to keep this a free country. That includes resisting the
trend of the government to become an agent of the "tyranny
of the majority". If the government were to be allowed to
forbid anything that might seem dangerous, we might as well
just shut the whole thing down and go home.

Come on, Ray - you're certainly no fan of the "nanny-state"
trend - but then you turn around and preach "compliance in
the name of expedient appeasement".

I believe in doing whatever works, whether it's compliance or non-compliance.
Sometimes one way works best, sometimes the other. I'm not a rules freak and
have no qualms about less-than-perfect compliance. But whenever possible, I'd
much rather be in compliance.

And when I choose non-compliance, I don't expect anyone else to stick their
necks out on my behalf, nor do I spend 15 years whining and slandering them if
they choose not to do so.

You can preach rebellion all you want but look at the facts: The manufacturers
who have adapted and complied are the ones who are thriving and enjoying a mass
market. Jerry chose not to comply, and can only sell under the table to a few
renegades who don't care about the regs and any suckers he can dupe into
thinking his stuff is legal. On top of that he's stuck with a $40k fine.

Total bullshit supreme. 2500 is not a mass market. It is the population
of *ONE* average high school.

Under the bogus rules the JBGTs are trying to claim are already in effect,
you would need an LEUP to buy an H128 or a G33 even at a local meet. And
you'd have to purchase it in advance, fromtheir place of business. On site
slaes are not permitted.

You are correct.

Jeff says he wants a LEUP to ship propellant to you.  It seems
reasonable to me since a bag of propellant is not a PAD.  You can get
an assembled motor from Jeff (or a dealer) at a launch and it is a PAD
so; no LEUP would be needed.

I know Jerry will shoot off his big mouth on the subject but all I
know is Jerry has been fined & thrown out of rocketry organizations
for not playing by the rules and Jeff has not.  Having the biggest
mouth does not make you right.

But you don't need it for onsite purchase.  I thought that's what all the
arguing was about.  If not, I'll drop out...<g>

There is no law or rule that makes a distinction!!

That is the point.

It is ALL not needing any permit.

Proof:

"In addition, the Court finds that the ATF's pronouncement that sport
rocket motors are not PADs is invalid because it was made without
compliance with the notice-and-comment rulemaking procedures of the OCCA
and the APA."

27 CFR 555.11, Propellant Actuated Device. Any tool or special
mechanized device or gas generator system which is actuated by a
propellant or which releases and directs work through a propellant
charge.

27 CFR 555.141 exemptions (a) (8) Gasoline, fertilizers, propellant
actuated devices, or propellant actuated industrial tools manufactured,
imported, or distributed for their intended purposes.

QED

I do NOT make this sh.t up. It is Federal regulation and supporting
court order from a federal judge!!!
