Smash Rocketry New Group Project – The Proton M

I can make it on Sunday, but Saturday is out- School Faire.

Scott, You have been very warm, friendly, and generous to Steve and the crew in allowing us and the build in your hanger, but obviously, you are just not that friendly to the neighbors in your HOA. If you were more friendly, get curious about what they are doing, and look like a 10 year old boy, they might let you go for a ride! LOL (Or it could be the ilk and the continuing stream of strange characters you are allowing in your hanger in an un-supervised manner. Why the hall monitor was in several times in a single day talking to us about keeping the bathroom clean and the door locked, and parking, and did we have any live propellant and that thing wont go off will it? You know the drill. I mean just look at the pictures of the people. The creepiest character is that bald headed, bearded fat guy wearing glasses):lol:

Dont worry……I told her the Alky Still, M.J. seads, Fire Works and Spandou replica were all yours. That should just about cover the ATF end of it. 8)

Actully I moved the still out before the City inspections last year. The 80mm canon was moved out the year before. 🙂

I really appreciate you thinking of me, in your gallant efforts to protect yourself.As I said, you are generous! 😆

Got rockets to fly on Saturday but if we’re working Sunday, I’m in.

We’ll do both days .. we need to wrap this up.

btw .. I went looking for keychain vid cams on the web and there are tons of them. Do you recommend a specific brand/model. What was the HD one you were telling me about?

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

Ihave dealt with these guys before, this would be an SD model, the price is ok, giventhat the shipping is free and the 8GB SD card is included:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/8GB-Mini-720-480-car-key-chain-Camera-DVR-Video-Recorder-Remote-Contr-/270969485459?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f170a3893

The #11 and #16 models are HD, but most of those sellers are in China, abd getting them here in time might be a little dicey, but you could try it.

So we could really use some posters at our ‘camp’ on launch day explaining the project, thanking supporters, etc.. Can anyone help with that?

Also, we need to get the graphics worked out. When I did the Delta II John Coker had already gathered up images so we used them. On the DragonShip I downloaded them online and gave them to the Vinyl Sign folks.

However, I can find none for the Proton so we may have to create them, have them created, etc. I would like to use this version as our model. If anyone can find us some good images we can use please do so.

Steve,

I bet if you gave Mira a sheet with the info you wanted, she would love to put together some sort of posters, info. sheets. She is quite good at art! We can’t make it tomorrow, but Sunday is looking like a good possibility. That would be the time to figure out what we could have her do.

I was thinking I might hear from you on this .. Thanks!

I’ll gather some info and have it for Sunday .. hope you can make it.

Here’s what we threw together .. last minute .. for the Delta. I believe we can do much more and much better .. if we don’t wait until the last minute.
