Peak-of-Flight Newsletter #545:

Using RockSim's Stability Graph Overlay

Peak-of-Flight Newsletter

There is a little-used feature from Rocksim that makes asymmetric arrangements possible - the Stability Graph Overlay.  With it, you can use it to create your own asymmetric arrangements. And you’ll know from the get-go whether or not they will be stable when you hit the launch button to send them skyward.

In this article, we'll explain how it works, so that you can create those futuristic models that aren't very symmetrical.

Read the rest of this week's article, either on a downloadable PDF for printing out, or on our website (great for viewing on your phone)!

Andromeda Cluster Rocket

Andromeda rocket kit

Imported from Germany, this Klima rocket kit called the Andromeda uses a cluster of four 18mm diameter engines to launch it skward. It also has a unique mid-body separation design to reduce the chance of zippered body tubes, plus an ejection baffle to protect the parachute. It makes a nice rocket if you want to try out clustering.

Wanted: Igniter and Battery Expert

We're looking for someone to write a definitive guide to selecting igniters, controllers and batteries for rockets. We'd love to have a newsletter article on that topic, because we get lots of inquiries about it. Is that you? Do you know how many e-matches can be set off in a cluster by a 3.7v 400 mAh battery? See our Newsletter Guidelines on how to submit an article on this topic and get paid up to $350 for your time.

I need help with generating the bi-weekly newsletter articles since it takes a lot of effort to put them together. And I'm willing to pay big bucks for your help.

So ask yourself, are you looking to earn some extra money?

I'm now actively seeking writers for articles to appear in this newsletter. And I want unique and cutting-edge articles because that is what you want to read, right? I realize this, so to get articles from outside writers that have the same level of quality, I'm going to have to pay a lot of cash to make it worth it for them. So I've come up with a compensation package where I'll pay up to $350 for good how-to articles.

Are you a writer, and does that interest you? That is a lot of cash! Far more than you'll get by writing for other magazines. And with over 23,000 worldwide subscribers, if you write for the Peak-of-Flight Newsletter, you'll gain a lot of notoriety. Writing for the Peak-of-Flight Newsletter is a great way to show off your rocketry projects and your technical expertise, at the same time as helping out other rocketeers. Imagine how great you'll feel knowing that you made a difference to the hobby.

If you're interested in writing, see the guidelines on our site.
