I guess that is up to you. I have a slide early on that ends with "If you’re looking for info on deployment altimeters, you’re in the wrong talk. Sorry...." So a clear choice. :D |

remember we'll have 30 days to watch any/all of the sessions. And those that haven't registered can still register, even after the conference ends. Just $25! a Steal. |

You are correct sir - the model he dropped (which WAS edited out but he pointed it out) was...Nike-Hercules! Looked like a fairly small scale, maybe even 13mm powered but it was a very short view. |
Bill just mentioned a specific future motor - higher powered B class booster.
|
It sounds like the future licensed SpaceX and Blue Origin rockets from Estes will be part of the 1/200 RTF line like the Saturn V and SLS. I can see that - those are dual purpose flyable/display models.

A definite but disappointing answer from the chat session after the Estes video tour - no 29mm motors coming to Hobby Lobby. We can infer that also means no 29mm powered kits at Hobby Lobby as welll since they only stock complimentary rockets/motors.

Liking to hear there will be a higher power B motor and a small Nike Herc.

Maybe a B with the number 14 after it? :D :chuckle: |
My bet will be that it'll be an 8 rather than 14 — but that will still be something useful indeed.

Be it a B8 or B14, either in a -0 delay will be most welcome as a booster instead of the B6-0.
One could reliably again fly a 3-stage 18mm powered rocket without fear of an extreme VEER upon clearing the launch rod. Once this happens, they can discontinue the B6-0 and nobody will miss it. It would be great if we could get the B8 or B14 back in -3,5,7, and 0 delays. Not sure why the B14-6 ever existed...seems like an un-needed delay. In the past I probably used more B14-0s than any other B14. The B14-7 was a close second. |
