is that your neighbors will notice a 2 gram charge in a 4 inch diameter test.
Had some ‘splaining to do..
When car alarms go off in the neighborhood it might be time to re-calculate the ratio of charge needed for air frame space pressurization. Deployment with attitude at altitude is an unknown variable that commands attention and testing. Lots of testing. At least my neighbors understand that now….
When you did the ‘splainin did you by chance say…hold my beer and watch this
that’s the universal Red Neck emergency room response:
All he said was: “Hold my beer and getta load of this!”
My one neighbor was worried I was going to send the rocket up from my back yard. I told them our launch site requirements and detailed the reason back yard launches are forbidden.
We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
