As you all know I'm new at this. Like most of you, probably, I like to build things...as opposed to buying things. The launch pad I will buy, but the battery--->switch--->wires to ignitor I think I would/could make.
[F-FT] Anyone build the Cosmos Mariner yet?	08 Jul 2005 14:55 GMT	1

I was wondering if anybody here has any sort of contact info for the people who used to run Aardvark Rocketry (Blackhawk R&D). I know they have been a memory for a number of years, however I was hoping I might be able to wheedle a little help out of them.
Batteries	07 Jul 2005 22:57 GMT	23
I have a 7 amp hr 12v gel-cell battery that I use for my 40M QRP CW rig. Much like the kind you'd use for emergency lighting. I was just curious if the same battery could be used for model rocketry. Clearly a lighted rocker type switch could be used to not complete but

I'd like to hear the input from folks here about where the 'line' is regarding a G motor as a model rocket motor and a mid- or high- power rocket motor. I've seen several posts in the past that state that certain 'G' motors
