What a great day in the neighborhood - actually an hour's drive out of town to the launch site.


3 x D12-0 cluster - Art Applewhite 10" saucer


3 x D12-3 cluster - Fliskit Richter Recker



B6-2 - Estes Bullpup (my son's) (and a second launch of the same)



D12-3 - Estes Pathfinder (my son's)


2 x C6-5 cluster - Fliskit Deuce's Wild

and last but presumably not least:



Ellis Mountain H50 in the Applewhite saucer to complete L1 certification.

That sounds great! If you haven't seen Tom Binford's upscale Deuce's Wild look here:

Might I add my congratulations as well. And hopefully 2 more?

As the Skybusters shout when there's a successful certification: "MO' MONEY! MO' MONEY!!" ;-) Congrats! What kind of saucer are you going to use for your level two!

Well, just had a look around and there is an EM SU motor in the Level 2 range (J228) that would fit in the 38mm mount. It would only stick 18 inches out the top! Now its got 4 1/2 times the thrust of the H50 I just used, so I have to wonder is my poor little saucer would take it.

Maybe I'll be able to find some plans for a big saucer somewhere.

Wait, what am I saying?! The only reason I got this stupid L1 was to do G clusters!!! Arghh, is that a sucking sound I hear?!

Yes, it is.

and now you are being reeled in !
