Model Forum / General / Rockets / August 2007Dr. Rocket?
Whatever became of Dr. Rocket hardware for AT RMS motors? Do any dealers still sell it? Larry Lobdell Jr. > Whatever became of Dr. Rocket hardware for AT RMS motors? Do any > dealers still sell it? > Larry Lobdell Jr. Dr.Rocket has basically fallen off the face of the Earth for model rocketry. No one has been able to contact him in months and orders are going unfilled. The suggested replacement is Rouse-Tech as they'r made to the same specs (Aerotech's specs) and so are interchangeable with Dr.Rocket and Aerotech hardware (excluding the hobby line cases) Andy at WhatsUpHobbies is a good source. -Aaron >> Whatever became of Dr. Rocket hardware for AT RMS motors?

He does M.D. for a living so work might be getting in the way or some other significant life change. Kurt I heard a rumor he passed away Did see his (and Monster motors) hardware made up as a windchime at NYPOWER.... > >> Whatever became of Dr. Rocket hardware for AT RMS motors?

Expensive wind chime, I'll say. :-) Did look up online and he has an F.P. office in Nevada. I called the number and the receptionist says Dr. is well, not ill and that they are open for business. I don't think he's passed away. (I also did an online obit check and his name didn't come up.) I mean, if the guy is bored or doesn't want to maintain the business, he should at least announce it, honor any outstanding obligations and then bow out gracefully. Finally, close down the webpage.
