They are tiny as you can see the scale.  You mount them on the electronics skid and make a airframe hole for the screwdriver to fit in.  I like them because they screw down on the ends and cannot come loose.

Jack I want 4 of them!   I'll try and make them work.

  I can't find the ones that had just the screw showing and wires coming out the back. They would fit the tube better.

Cool, yes I would use the Aeropack Retainer very clean and trustworth and convenient and I have the key switches in stock always, Altimeter If you want down and dirty I like the Perfect Flite Stratologger they are $79.95 and pretty reliable, also go to my website and check out my new thrust plates they are MilSpec anodized aluminum and have the Aeropack bolt hole pattern pre-tapped already so you just screw it in and if your bird ever crashes then unscrew and take with you and lastly check out my new MilSpec rail buttons in both sizes ¼” and 5/16” that shit is Boss Hog

Sounds fine to me.

I've been going over the DX3's stuff and it all looks quality to me.  I will be making a few mods on the nose cone, but otherwise, it's pretty good stock.  I'll need a couple of those key switches.  I may be in the market for a new altimeter.  I don't need any of the special bells and whistles, but want a quality unit that is highly reliable.  Suggestions?  Also, since I'm using the 3/8" eye bolt for drogue anchor, is a special aft retainer as important?  It would look cleaner if I use one of Aerotech's jobs I guess.....

Hey Richard

 

               I bought the lanyards and holders it came to $115.20 I also had the launch money from last month that was $110.00 so I will snag a few lanyards and call it even so I don’t have to write the club a check then you write me a check and we can sale them so the club makes a little bit of money. I got 300 of the lanyards that go around your neck and 100 holders so if you want to just punch your card you can do that or you can get a holder to put it in. Ok that is off my list to do

Yeah.  Last year I basically doubled the pre-orders.  I can certainly get much closer this year.  The surprise was all the XXL.  I think there were 2 pre ordered and I got 2 extra.  I could have sold 10.

There will always be people that want a shirt.  I always get one or two......  We had too many small sized last year and could have used a few more XXL as you stated.  I think we have the numbers dialed in?

Want t-shirts again?

 

I can start looking for artwork if we want to do them again.

 

This year I will order more XXL and fewer small sizes.  Our group seems to be expanding if you know what I mean…
