Launch tower at big ears.
1 May 2007 07:52:36 -0700
Hello there,
Does anyone have a launch tower for a 29mm 3fnc rocket, I haven't
finished my pad yet and could do with one at big ears. I just don't
want to stick lugs or anything to such a skinny rocket.

Thanks,
Mark.

Momentary switch source
Sun, 29 Apr 2007 19:48:22 +0100

can't find one that looks like a normal SPDT metal toggle switch. Any ideas
of sources? Tried UTR archive search without success.
