[NRVR-Members] What's your favorite dual purpose Medium + HP Rocket?

[bruce fette]

Here you go. The lettering on the level 3 says "Flying On The Wings Of Giants", referring of course to Robert Goddard, Werner Von Braun, and Willy Ley.
Enjoy,Bruce

Especially with a big launch coming up in October, and people preparing to place motor orders (give a shout out here if anyone needs to get in on our group order to safe a ton of money).I know several guys in our group like and used the Aerotech G-Force to fly G's (pre-certification) and then used it to get their L1 certification.Several glowing reviews here:http://www.rocketreviews.com/aerotech-aerospace-g-force--by-dan-schneider.htmlGreat info and purchase link here:https://www.apogeerockets.com/Rocket_Kits/Skill_Level_3_Kits/G-ForceNOTE: This is a 29mm motor mount rocket, meaning this is a solid G performer but it can also function well to get you your L1 cert. However, a very popular mod is to swap out the motor mount and centering rings with 38mm components to make this rocket a real screamer.. able to take H and some I motors without further modifications. (contact someone who's done this before if you never have. There are some trade offs and considerations)Another great mid+high power performer is theLOC Precision Minnie-Mag:http://www.rocketreviews.com/locprecision-minie-magg--by-bryan-m-chuck.htmlhttps://www.apogeerockets.com/Rocket_Kits/Skill_Level_3_Kits/Minie-MaggThis one is great because it is a 38mm ready to go, plus it's over 5" in diameter which means it has slow, dramatic liftoffs that won't punch a hole in the stratosphere (i.e. you'll likely get it back and get your certification with ease ;)Another ready to go 38mm G/H/I motor rocket is thePatriot Missile by Mad Cow:https://www.apogeerockets.com/Rocket_Kits/Skill_Level_3_Kits/Patriot_MissileA really popular rocket with the scale missile lovers. :)More info on L1 certification:https://www.apogeerockets.com/High-Power_Rocketry_Certification?pg=quicksideSo what's YOUR favorite Medium + High Power rocket?Tweeks
