    Ep 17: Chemical Safety thoughts in Model Rocket Building

    As you get started in Hobby Rocketry, It's important to be mindful of the chemicals you use in constructing & Painting your rockets. We explore this area of the hobby in this episode with Daniel the Rocket N00b, and his guest Ray. We take a deep dive into things to keep in mind, and simple precautions to take while using: Epoxy - Long term exposure both by skin contact and breathing in fumes could create problems for people. We share thoughts on some precautions to take. Paints - Obviously, we can all tell by the smell that there is probably not good stuff to breathe in there. We discus Building Materials - Some building materials can cause short term discomfort and more serious issues over time. Take precautions to protect yourself from both.

    Mike Nowak and James Duffy - FAI Competition Rocketry

    James Duffy, left, and Mike Nowak, right, at the opening ceremonies of the European Space Modeling Competition in Ukraine, 2015 Here’s an episode we recorded a while back, and since it’s been a hot topic recently due to virtual NARCON, we’re dropping it now. We chat with Mike Nowak and James Duffy – two skilled rocket builders who’ve been competing on the American team in international rocketry competitions for years. FAI – the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale – is the world governing body for air sports, including model rocketry. The International Championships for Spacemodeling are frequently held in Europe, and until next year, have never been held in the United States. That’s about to change, as the Internats will be held in the U.S. in 2023, giving Americans the opportunity to fly for the national team without the often challenging aspects of getting themselves – and their fragile model rockets – overseas. We talk with Mike and James about what it takes to build good competition scale models, what competing in the internationals is like, and much more, on this episode of The Model Rocket Show. In other news, the N00b has opened an Etsy shop of rocketry-related t-shirts and coffee mugs. You can find it by clicking here.

    Frank Burke and His RC Rocket Gliders

    Model Rocket Guy Jesse U (left) with our guest, Frank Burke In this episode, Model Rocket Guy Jesse U of The Rocketry Show sits in for the N00b. Jesse talks with Frank Burke, maker of a number of amazing, large, radio controlled rocket gliders. Frank uses AeroTech’s long burning composite motors to loft these models vertically, and then controls their long, gliding descent with the RC controller he’s holding. As Frank discusses in the episode, it’s not as hard to get started with these rocket gliders as you might think, if you’re a traditional 3-fins and a nose cone kind of rocketeer. In fact, Frank can help, as he sells the kits for these fabulous birds at his website, Dyna Soar Rocketry (click here to visit the site). On his site, Frank has most of what you need to get started, including the right motors, instructional videos, and a radio settings page. To see the rockets discussed in the latter half of the episode, click on the link to Dyna Soar rocketry and view the pictures. Thanks to Frank for joining us on The Model Rocket Show, and thanks to Jesse for stepping in for the N00b!
