2009-08-27Cosmodrome Rocketry Nike Apache (Kit)  Review
Brief:
This is a very nice 1:6 scale model of the Nike-Apache sounding rocket suitable for E motors up through small HPR
motors. It's a hefty and strong kit capable of surviving almost anything you throw at. This was my L1 cert rocket.
Construction:
The parts list:
Conical ... [More]

Scratch Screaming Yellow Zonkers (Scratch)  Review
I took a Totally Tubular and added an extension to the body tube, spin fins, and a new theme.
Modifications: Originally I modified it to become a spin-stabilized two-stager, but that didn't work, so this'll describe how to convert a regular kit to a 'Screaming Yellow Zonker!'.

2009-01-16Scratch Cohete (Scratch)  Review

1/2 butter pat of clay

The parts list:
18" of BT-50; mine only has 10" left.
1-15/16" of BT-50 for booster
2 magenta plastic fin units

Scratch IT (Scratch)  Review
( Contributed - by David Sindel - 01/15/09) Brief:
This is a MicroMaxx saucer made from scrap plastic parts. It's a great backyard flier. IT is short for
Intra-Terrestrial, a play on ET.
Construction:
For the saucer-shaped part, most any roughly conical plastic parts will do. I ... [More]
2008-11-02Scratch Rama (Scratch)  Review
( Contributed - by David Sindel - 11/02/08) Brief:
This is a rough scale model of Rama from Arthur C. Clarke's Rendezvous With Rama . It's made from a piece of
3-inch mailing tube and scrap materials. The fictional Rama is 54km long, making mine roughly 1:270000.
Construction: ... [More]
2008-10-22Scratch Astron Invader (downscale) (Scratch)  Review
( Contributed - by David Sindel - 10/22/08) Brief:
This is my semi-downscale of the old (1965-67) K-19 Astron Invader. The wings and fins are 2/3 of the original, but I
kept the 18mm motor mount. It's a very unique glider with unusual flights and a fairly easy build.
Construction: ... [More]
