Hello from British Columbia

Post by Niluht »

Hello, I am a new member located in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, Canada.

I have been building rockets on and off for a number of years. They have ranged in size from 600 mL to 6 L. Launchers are either Gardena quick release or cable tie.

I have tried a tomy timer parachute release with so- so results, but have just put together a TI MSP430G2 altimeter with servo deploy as per us water rockets. I am looking forward to using it in the near future!

For the next build I will try bottle splicing, which will be new for me.

Anyone else from this part of the world???

Well, Minnesota isn't exactly close by but we do have some ideas of what to do when the water starts changing phases on us.

:W to the forum

I am from Belgium, so I am really far away

Sorry for malconstructions in my sentences, I am Belgian. And I was never good at making easy sentences.
