high altitude flight beyond where normal barometric units would cease

I'm getting ready to purchase a new 1/4" x 6ft length launch rod... and I

Hey all... I did a search for Andy on google, and it pulled up a thread
on another wesbite that said something about posting on RMR the

I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it: I don't care
about the useless pre-fabricated crap this message usually says. All I

We are now offering  hybrid launch support at all NEPRA launches. Everyone
is welcome to use the equipment, but we can't give away free nitrous for too
long before we would go broke. We need to come up with a cost accounting
table for filling tanks. I've scoured the net looking for ...

Sorry for posting a question about rockets, but has any one ever used the
inter-changeable motor cans made by Freqken industries?  How durable are they?
