Pro…. 24?

My 24mm wish list:

I’m reading this. Just so you know 😉

I was hoping you would be. Probably too late for suggestions, but one can dream…

Never too late.

Are you serious about the motor spacers though? For what reason?

Adrian,
Maybe we can help CTI roll out the 24mm motors at MHM with an altitude duel-

Meet me at noon on the high plains, at the NCR corral. Bring your Raven altimeter, same launch tower, same CTI 24mm load. Maybe a full F or G and we can take down some more records. One shot each.

Based on a few guesses.

I’m guessing that there will be a case that’s the same length as an Estes D engine, and that there will be a CTI D-impulse load for it, for small fields, that would require some kind of spacer. I’m hoping that it’s a cleaner solution like the pro-38s and their spacers, rather than the annoying internal cardboard spacer of the A/T 24-40. But maybe you have a fully external cardboard spacer and 2 case sizes, which would be o.k., too, if it’s inexpensive enough. (I do a lot of flying on Ds and Es on a local school field for deployment testing and to have rocketry fun with my kids without the long drive.)

I’m also planning to buy case sizes for a full G, a full F, and maybe a full H if you have one, and I’m thinking that there is likely going to be a case size or two that I would rarely fly, sized between those and an Estes D-length case. I’d probably rather buy all the case sizes if 4 or 5 of them come together for $100-$120, but otherwise I’d probably rather buy the two or 3 I’m most interested in and buy a cheap spacer for the other one or two. I’m also guessing that the CTI loads will be priced reasonably enough that I’ll want to fly them for more than just record attempts.

But since you seem surprised, I’m also guessing that my other guesses are off-base. 😉

I’m looking forward to more details when available.

Thanks again for all the great product development. I hope the folks with the purse strings are o.k. with your development budget! Very impressive. I think you have certified more motors in the last 2 years than everyone else put together for the last 5, maybe more.

I agree with Adrian on this one.
There are a few of us on the board that fly small fields (relatively) and would like a couple good all around cases that we can use for a wider range. It’s like needing a spacer for 29, I was thinking it would make that more scalable to smaller fields as well. Although I already have a 1,3,6 grn cases and am waiting for the 2 grn. So it’s a mute point there I guess 😉

But, it you offered a set like Adrian was saying, I feel it would be a hot seller. And, I too would forgo the spacer and get a set.
