Thumbing through a 2022 Estes rocketry catalog

2022-03-02 13:44:50+00:00

Man I used to pour over the Estes catalog. I still have most of my old rockets, not that I had that many. I did lose my Alpha in the field behind the house.

I had this bright I idea to make a scale model of a sidewinder missile, taking measurements straight off of one on an F-16 at an air show. Unfortunately, it was only half finished like a lot of my projects.

I do have some friends who are in to the big boy rockets. Making their own engines, etc. One of them needs a GPS to find them again they go so high.
