Brain'em and Launch'em if you got'em!
The full launch event is details are on our calendar event [ here ]( https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?eid=M2RwcWE3czZpZmFiZHByNmltbmdzcHFkZG1fMjAyMjA4MjdUMTMwMDAwWiBkanNrcmd0bTcyY2RrZzAxZm05bWx1aTVoY0Bn&ctz=America/Toronto ).
Good News - Lifting Our Launch Limits:
We've had a good track record this summer.. with I think only one small model rocket fling over to the power lines.. and all of our HP launches have come down in our new, projected southern recovery zone (away from the dairy farm). As such, we're loosing up our flight restrictions a bit. Thanks for helping us collect flight data! Bob's putting the ceiling back up to 5kft, and we can fly up through L motors again. We just request prior [ request, approval & documentation ]( http://server2.nrvr.org/files/NRVR_Pre-Flight_Data_Capture_Form_2020.pdf ) for Ms for now.
See "Safety Requirement" section of [ the ]( https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?eid=M2RwcWE3czZpZmFiZHByNmltbmdzcHFkZG1fMjAyMjA4MjdUMTMwMDAwWiBkanNrcmd0bTcyY2RrZzAxZm05bWx1aTVoY0Bn&ctz=America/Toronto )[ launch details ]( https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?eid=M2RwcWE3czZpZmFiZHByNmltbmdzcHFkZG1fMjAyMjA4MjdUMTMwMDAwWiBkanNrcmd0bTcyY2RrZzAxZm05bWx1aTVoY0Bn&ctz=America/Toronto ) for special flight documentation.
Helping Saves Money!
As always.. we can use a hand with setup(9am), running and break down(4-5pm). As the new (old) treasurer.. we need to be a little more disciplined about collecting our HP launch fees. As always.. $10/day. NRVR members for just $5.. but volunteer (RSO, LCO, pad manager) and get that final $5 off. :) And as always, our students all fly free bc they're typically more poor than we are. :)
Group Motor Order:
No one on the board said they were going to do a group motor order.. but if any of you all do, I (personally) recommend using Chris Rocketry Supplies ([ https://csrocketry.com/rocket-motors.html ]( https://csrocketry.com/rocket-motors.html )), shipping to ONE address (note that it's an NRVR group order in the shipping notes), and leave the order open through this Friday.. so you get the order in time for the launch. Shipping has really gone up.. so you can easily save $20 on a motor order doing group orders.
That's about it!
What are you flying?
I'm going to try to put a non-suck paint job on my 4" IRIS. We'll see how that turns out. :)
See you at the launch!
