Altimeter / Dual Deployment Class

On Saturday April 5th at 11 am - 2 pm we are holding our class on 
USING ALTIMETERS FOR DUAL DEPLOYMENT.

 
We will be discussing the types of altimeters available, What is the best altimeter choice for your situation, Designing and building an altimeter bay, Making ejections charges as well as how to prep your rocket for dual deployment. This class is great for beginners as well as those of you that already have some experience. We will be having a FREE raffle for those that attend and I already have a Missile Works RRC2+ Altimeter, Featherweight Magnetic Switch, Key Switches and T-shirts for the raffle. Louise has graciously found a room for our use but I will need to have you RSVP to me so I know haw many members will attend!

 

The address is 515 Clanton Rd, Charlotte, NC 28217 (this is exit 7 off of 77) Looking forward to seeing you there! (I will be supplying some snacks and water, just not a full lunch!)

 

Please respond if you can attend. For non members, you can let me know if you will be attending by sending me an email at: johnbergsmith@me.com
