Special Notices:
I will need a lot of help with this one. I'm expecting a crowd.
Set up will begin a little later than normal. Probably in the 9:00
AM range. This is being done as per flyer request. It seems to make
things easier on everyone.
We will be setting up the following:
Low Power Pads and controller
H&I pads (1)
J & K pads (1)
The "L" and "M" pads will not be set up, unless requested. If you
are flying a rocket with a motor in the L or M class please request
the equipment ahead of time, or be willing to set it up prior to your
launch. We are doing this because these pads were not used at the
last launch. Its really not a problem, L or M flights are always
welcome.
Send all requests to info @ quickburst.net
