Dug in the basement. Found my old range box! Full of Estes Engines!!! Has my old self made launcher and a 6 v blockbattery. Hooked it up and the light came on!!! Also found those micro toothless alligator clips that are impossible to find over here in Germany. Now to find a place I can fly them...

This may be an opportunity for you: SRT 2017. You may also find very experienced Rocketeers to help you further here....

Oh I better join something and get some insurance. I talked to a local RC airplane club and they were interested in seeing what rockets were about. One member said he had 3 and never thought about asking to see if he could fly them there. Of course I have to be insured by someone to fly on their field, and they started discussing if it was 1) easier for me to just be a member and be insured by them, 2) be in a rocket club with insurance and then it would have to be run though their bureaucracy to be approved, 3) be allowed to fly anything beyond a MicroMaxx rocket as they do not fly above 150 meters.


I am interested in going to rocket events, I have about a dozen low powered ones and and have been building and flying them for 40 years, I just want to find a farmer that will agree to let me launch locally.

The insurance offered by (most? all?) rocketry clubs in Germany will cover both model rockets and model airplanes up to the legal limit of 25 kg MTOW, and you'll get a certificate from the insurance that you can show to your club.

And of course you can stay well below 150 m even on a D motor, if you want ;-)

150 with D? No problemo. Just crank it down to 90 degrees... I am playing with Open Rocket, still trying to get the hang. My Yankee with a Klima D is projected to go Mach .64 and an altitude of 600+ meters...
