Probably another dumb question - but has anyone tried a mercury switch for deployment? At apogee when the rocket turn over, the mercury would complete the connection and hopefully set off the ejection charge. Has this ever been tried? Also, I see that AEROTECH is now producing motors again (since around April). Is the the legislation that is keeping them from the market? Local hobby shop here says he doesn't have a clue as to when he will be able to get motors again. Thanks Tom B.
