Episode 125: The Radio Rocket Project 1:02:55

for 1 year siden1:02:55

1:02:55

On this episode, our guest is Vance Martin, an amateur radio operator who goes under the callsign N3VEM. Martin became involved in rocketry as a kid in the typical way; seeing model rockets at the local hobby shop, and discovering the hobby with a friend. As he moved into middle and high school, he discovered mid and high power rocketry through online rocketry communities. While in college he built a PML 1/4 Scale Patriot rocket to use for his Level One, but was unable to find a nearby club to certify, so his L1 rocket sat collecting dust over the years. After college, Vance discovered ham radio, and earned his amateur radio callsign N3VEM, and built a portable station in his vehicle so that he could play radio while being out and on the road for work. As seems to be a pre-requisite for Ham Radio, Vance also became a software and hardware 'tinkerer', so for him, building radio-related projects turned out to be a lot of fun, and is still what he calls his 'primary hobby.' Vance became a Born-Again-Rocketeer about a year ago, when his two older kids found the Patriot rocket stashed in the corner of the family storage room. They asked 'What is this!?!' "...and just like that" says Vance " we started building up a fleet of little Estes kits." Vance decided that it would be fun to combine the two hobbies, and start tinkering with radio and electronic payloads for their rockets. "I knew that 'off the shelf' stuff was available, but being a tinkerer, I wanted to build my own." he recalls. He continues. "I wanted to target mid-power sized rockets with my projects, since I still live in the same town, and still don't have easy access to a club with a high-power launch site." Vance enjoys his hobbies, and is having fun, saying "I'm still very much a rocketry noob, but I'm having a blast dabbling around with building the rockets, and hacking around at hardware and software for the rockets' payloads." Vance's website is : https://n3vem.com/blog/RadioRocketV2/…

Are you REALLY 'GO' to use your full FAA waiver? 1:15:31

for 2 years siden1:15:31

1:15:31

Are you really 'GO' to use your full FAA waiver? Greg Young shares his experiences with this topic, and what he learned is an eye opening education for all rocketeers! About our guest...Greg shares his background in rocketry... My rocketry experience started in 1961, at the ripe old age of 10years, when I ordered, built and flew rockets from Estes Industries. Try as I may, I was not successful at getting local hobby shops to carry rocketry supplies at that time, as the owners felt they were dangerous fireworks. My flying continued until taking a hiatus during my college, and then post graduate years. When my oldest daughter expressed an interest in rockets (while in 3rd grade) my flying resumed. I joined NAR, and TRA at that time and formed a local rocketry club, the Southtown's Amateur Rocket Society (STARS). When my youngest daughter left middle school for high school, I wound up taking another hiatus, and the club disbanded. My flying hiatus ended when my grandchildren expressed interest in rocketry. I rejoined NAR and TRA, and decided to go through the official high power certification program (something not required back in the 1980's when I flew) and am currently a level 3 flier. I have been involved in 2 NY rocketry groups, one in Geneseo, the other in Penn Yan, and have served from 2016 through the end of 2022 as a member of board of directors, the VP, the waiver holder, the RSO and also served the Prefect of the former for part of that time. I have served on the planning committees for LDRS 34, NSL 2018, and NARAM 62, and during those launches was involved on the field running the range safety operations. Currently I have been involved with local youth (high school and college age primarily), and officially have mentored several school ARC teams which have gone to nationals, and most recently a high school team who was chosen to participate in the 2023 NASA student launch initiative and went on to the nationals in Huntsville. I am hoping to get time to be able to fly more, and mentor more student groups going forward. They are, after all, our future...…

TRS - Rocketry Hobby News Update 28:55

Items in this news podcast: SMT Designs releases all of their rocketry designs to public domain Steve Thatcher: "With my upcoming LDRS 40 trip and TRA Tech session there on "3D Printed Modular Avionics Bays", I wanted to make an announcement, so here it is..." Steve Thatcher says “I am in the process of releasing all of my rocketry designs to the public domain under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International” You can read the licensing in detail at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ You can find the designs on http://www.tinkercad.com/ by simply doing a "People" search for "SteveThatcher". Once you find the profile, click it to view the parts. Steve has also tagged the parts with “SMTDESIGNS”, “AVBAY”, and “ROCKETRY”, but you will get more "hits" that way of other non-related parts. My intent in doing this is to propagate the footprint standard I created for devices and batteries over the last years, so the rocketry community could benefit. Thatcher says “I would also like to see my designs come to a greater use by making them available for no cost to those that have the required equipment.” Steve asks that the footprints for carriers and platforms remain unchanged. Thatcher says”I recognize the need to change things when necessary, but changing footprints negates the universal benefit they provide. Take the time to look at my entire library of parts to get a system view of why things were done.” Steve will be available to answer questions through SMT Designs, and the SMT Designs facebook page. _______________________________ Tripoli News During the LDRS 40 Member's Banquet it was announced that that the Tripoli Wisconsin Association, Tripoli Green Bay, and Tripoli Chicago will be hosting LDRS 41 at the Richard Bong Recreation Area located in Kenosha County, Wisconsin. The event is planned to take place July 6, 7, 8 and 9, 2023. More details and information will be coming soon. _______________________________ New Unified TRA Safety Code https://www.tripoli.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&club_id=795696&module_id=520420 Tripoli Rocketry Association unveiled its new “unified” safety code on May1 of this year. President Bob Brown notes that: Under this safety code, there are no longer Commercial launches or Research launches, just Tripoli launches. There are some changes to the current safety code, such as a common safe distance table, a safety code for both model rockets as well as radio-controlled boosted gliders as well as other changes. Tripoli asks all members to please take the time to read the document in its entirety. Mr. Brown notes that “While your first reaction will probably be there seem to be a lot more rules under this new document, in fact, almost nothing more restrictive has been adopted it’s just compiled into one document now.” TRA notes that they owe a huge thank you to Steve Shannon, “who undertook the daunting task of compiling the information from the original four documents and writing (in plain English, not legalese) a document we can all understand and follow”. ____________________________________ Reminder on NARAM 63 NARAM-63 will be July 16-22, 2022. Sport flying begins on Saturday, July 16, and will run through the following Friday, July 22. The US Team Flyoffs/North Coast Cup flying will begin Saturday, July 16, and run through Monday, July 18.

Middle and high school teams could choose to attempt the college/university division challenge or develop their own science or engineering experiment. Teams in the college/university division tackled a new task that mirrors NASA’s missions like the Mars Curiosity Rover. Teams had to design a payload capable of autonomously locating where their rocket landed by identifying the rocket’s grid position on an aerial image of the launch site while transmitting the data back to their ground station. This had to be accomplished without the use of GPS. The requirement simulates a challenge faced by NASA’s mission managers – communicating with spacecraft and payloads on distant plan mmmm etary bodies, where use of GPS is not an option. Sixty teams from 22 states including Puerto Rico took part in this year’s competition, with 27 teams launching April 23 near NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Teams that did not travel were allowed to conduct their final test flights at a home launch field. For the second year in a row, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte won the launch division, while Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas, won first place in the design division of NASA’s 2022 Student Launch rocketry competition. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte will receive $5,000 for first place in the launch division, and Tarleton State University will receive $2,500 for first place in the design division. The top five teams in the launch division are: University of North Carolina at Charlotte University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee University of Florida, Gainesville Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana The top two teams in the design division are: Tarleton State University, Stephenville, Texas New York University ______________________________________ American Rocketry Contest (TARC) https://rocketcontest.org/result/2022/ 1) Newport High School - Team 2 from Bellevue, WA (22-1326) $20,000 (Flight 1) 2 (Flight 2) 11 Total Score = 13 2) Newport High School - Team 1 from Bellevue, WA (22-1804) $15,000 (Flight 1) 2 (Flight 2) 12 Total Score 14 3) All Saints Episcopal School from Haslet, TX (22-1126) $12,500 (Flight 1) 6.12 (Flight 2) 11 Total Score = 17.12 4) Spring Grove Area Intermediate School - Team 2 from Spring Grove, PA (22-1534) $10,000 (Flight 1) 13 (Flight 2) 6.8 Total Score = 19.8 5) Coleman High School from Coleman, TX (22-1645) $7,500 (Flight 1) 10.12 (Flight 2) 10 Total Score = 20.12 6) Creekview High School - Team 3, from Canton, GA $3,500 (Flight 1) 17.2 (Flight 2) 7 Total Score = 24.2 7) Camas High School from Camas, WA (22-1495) $2.500 (Flight 1) 9, (Flight 2) 16.16 Total Score = 25.16 8) Young Engineers in Action from Hawaiian Gardens, CA (22-1500) $2,500 (Flight 1) 19.64, (Flight 2) 10, Total Score = 29.64 9) Thomas Jefferson High School - Team 9 from Alexandria, VA (22-1764) $2,500 (Flight 1) 7 (Flight 2) 26.8, Total Score = 33.8 10) Tharptown High School from Russellville, AL (Flight 1) 1 (Flight 2) 34.12, Total Score = 35.12 Each school or organization for teams 1-5 also receives $1,000.

chapAppDescWelcome to Episode 114 of The Rocketry Show! In this Episode, we'll be talking about The Hot Nozzle Summer 2021 event! Jenna Kay Foertsch joins us from the Johnson Space Center in Houston, where she works, to talk about it! On July 23rd of this year at the FAR launch site in the desert of California, Tim Dodd, AKA The everyday Astronaut, stomped his foot down on an air powered rocket to kick off an event that has taken the rocketry community by viral storm.

This movement celebrates all aspects of rocketry whether its getting a Level 1 high powered certification through NAR or Tripoli, or just shooting model rockets in the backyard with your kids this summer. You do not have to come to the live event to participate in the movement." Primarily a social media phenomenon, the group’s dedicated leaders pulled off an event that saw many rockets fly many of which were from people new to the hobby, or flying to achieve a higher certification level. Jenna Kay, one of the main organizers of the event joins The Rocketry Show to discuss how the event came to be, what challenges were overcome to pull it off, and what the future might hold for what has essentially become a movement to bring people into the hobby that has not been seen before.…
