Flying Saucer Building Session—Mark Smeiska will lead you through the ins-and-outs of building your very own UFO. Your Own Cape Canaveral - Building & Maintaining Your Ground Support Equipment—After you have finished building your rocket you will want to fly it. ( That's half the fun!) Regardless of the size of the rocket, you will need an electrical ignition system and a launch pad to support the rocket until it takes to the air. This building workshop will cover some of the launch controllers and pads that are commercially available, some different examples of homemade launch controllers, away cells, and pads, basic maintenance of your equipment, plus give attendees the chance to build their own cheap pad that complies with the Model Rocket Safety Code. Session will be limited to 25 people. Please make sure you make this one. Presented by Michael G. Erpelding. |
