Acrylic Rod Hybrid Rocket Motor demo
Interesting design. It would be interesting to put this on a thrust stand to see impulse it works out to.

Onboard Rocket Videos - NARAM 54
Here are the three onboard videos I shot from NARAM 54 July 28, 29 2012. The camera is a small HD "keyfob" found on ebay for roughly $40 minus micro SD card. One of these and some electrical tape adn you can shoot high res HD video from practically any rocket.

Level 3 Project - Update
Here are some photos of the ebay sled build. Two sheets of G10 with brass tubes JB welded to one. The other sheet is mounted with 5x10-32 screws. Mounting hardware is in place for the ARTS 1 and PerfectFlite MAWD altimeters. Next up is the battery mounts on the other G10 sheet. I have some aluminum to cut for that.

Level 3 Reboot
I've hardly touched my L3 project in the past year. I'm hoping that posting about it might actually motivate me to get engaged and knock it out for this summer. I have two rockets in mind. The first is a Performance Hobbies Intimidator 5 all fiberglass kit. The second is a scratch built design using LOC Precision parts. I'm inclined to cert with the scratch build even though it will take more work to get it done. I have some build photos already and will start posting them soon.
