Robert, sounds good. Will you give us the word when it’s time?

Let’s wait until we update the stock qtys.
That way there is no confusion and everyone gets what they order.
We know how important that is. Flyers hate ordering and then being told
“It’s not in stock”

Yes, I have a long laundry list of CTI loads I need also.
I think you can order them now or just wait until the launch to pick up.
Robert?

Excellent! CTI is my preferred brand. If we want to place a pre-order for
pickup at the launch, should we wait until after May 6 for the inventory to
update? Not that I’m going to jump on it much in advance of that date
anyway, but just curious to know how to be sure we are looking at current
stock.
Thanks,
Eric

Good point. So we will limit this event to no more than J impulse.
This is to minimize lost rockets and stay in the waiver cylinder.

altitude then it's more about the parachute sizing and proper motor
selection.
Just a thought...

It's total duration.
You need a logging altimeter, and this event will be open to H and above.

Sounds great!
For parachute duration, is that the entire flight duration? Or slowest
descent rate? I’m curious about the details of exactly how it will work
and what we would need to show to the judge.
Thanks!

Hey folks,
Someone asked the question, and it's a good one, for DA we have the
below lined up:
Presidents Challenge - closest but does not exceed 16,800. Winner gets
their motor of choice. Only one per Launch (some folks have one and got
ridiculous prizes - like M's)
Altitude Challenge(s) - 5K, 10K, 15K - winner takes all per heat - $20
and up to 10 people per class, 50% match from Club!
Parachute Duration - longest hang time wins - similar to 2.
Nightflight - best and most spectacular Night flight
All of the above we end up having winners, usually great donations from
our vendors and the club support make this a huge
fun and successful event. Last big 3-day, we also had sponsors for some
of the events.
I'm really excited about 4. Nightflight and 2/3 was killer and honestly
some of the 1. launches are amazing.
