Estes Transroc (v1) - more info and where to find one...
Hi, all! I'm an old rocketeer being reborn (for a second time) and who's discovering new things about the hobby thanks to the information age. Please indulge me on a couple of queries (and please know I'm new to this forum). The Estes Transroc Transmitter is fascinating. It seems this product was years ahead of its time in this world of low powered model rockets. A tiny CB transmitter able to convey quite a few pieces of telemetric info via citizens band radio. How cool, educational and fun is that? I found a pdf copy of both the thick-as-hell Transroc operating manual and the Rocketronix catalag. Judging from the info I'm able to find this was no mere toy but a sophisticated instrument for the passionate hobbyist. So it seems some of those on here have had a small bit of experience with this unit but I have not run across accounts from people that have explored this in any great depth. I would love to have my own T-roc unit to play with. Do any of you have one? Have actual experience with one?are curious about knowing more? Can YOU build one from schematics?? Please engage me in this interesting conversation. Looking forward to responses...
