Here’s another deal I found with the Rocketry Deal Finder. Amazon has the Quest Shuttle Intrepid kit at 45% off list price. It is eligible for free “Super Saver Shipping” (on orders over $25) and for free two-day Amazon Prime shipping.

The RocketReviews.com Deals Finder currently shows that Amazon currently has bulk packages of 24 Estes C6-5 motors listed for $27.31 with free shipping. That’s more than $65 off the list price. Look for Amazon’s offer under “More Buying Choices.” The catch is that Amazon is listing them as “Not in Stock.” But, they are accepting orders at the low price and promising to ship them later. So, I’m not sure if you’ll receive the motors at the low price or not. But, it’s worth a try. 9/24 UPDATE: The Amazon offer no longer appears at Amazon.com.

The currently link appears only under images you have uploaded to RocketReviews.com and under photos that I contributed (such as the photos I’ve taken at ROCK, NEFAR, and TTRA launches). The link only appears under images which are large enough to print well on most of the products. Generally, an image must be more than 1000 pixels wide or 1000 pixels tall for it to print well on a t-shirt. For this reason, the site includes the link to order products only if the image is more than 1000 pixels wide or tall. Later, an option will be added to allow you to specify if you’d like others to be able to use your images on products. As an Continue reading Photo Album T-Shirts, Posters, Postage Stamps, and More …. … I’ve added a “Deals” option under the RocketReviews.com Features menu. About a month ago, Amazon.com listed the Estes Saturn V kit for $35 – a discount of almost 65% off the kit’s list price. The highly-discounted price didn’t last long, but many were still able to take advantage of it. That got me thinking … and I came up with an automated way to monitor Amazon.com’s rocketry products to look for deals like the one on the Saturn V kit. The ”Deals” feature lists rocketry-related products at Amazon.com which are discounted at least 25% off the MSRP or list price. The list is updated frequently because prices at Amazon.com can change at any time. As I write this, the ”Deals” feature shows that one vendor at Amazon.com is offering Estes Big Bertha kits at $9.50 – over 60% off the list price – even adding the shipping cost, it’s still a good deal. It’s not Continue reading Rocketry Products Deals Finder … With thousands of products listed in the RocketReviews.com Rocketry Product Index, the biggest challenge faced is how to organize the information. One of the first things I did when revamping the EMRR web site into RocketReviews.com was to add “attributes” to the rocket kits and other products. The attributes include data such as the manufacturer, length, diameter, recommended motors, designer, and style of the rocket. The attributes are linked to similar attributes in other products, so, for example, you can quickly access a list of all Ring-Finned Rockets or all rockets with A8-3 as a recommended motor. You can find a list of all the attributes by clicking the “By Attribute” tab in the Product Index. I recently added a new attribute, Tags, which helps to find products related to other products. For example, you can now quickly call up a lit of all the kits which are scale models of Black Brant rockets or Continue reading Tags Added to Rocketry Product Index … The Top Reviews link under the Features menu displays a list of the “Top” (most viewed) 25 reviews at RocketReviews.com. it also displays a list of the 25 “Bottom” (least viewed) reviews. If a review that you wrote appears in the “Top” list, please feel free to savor the knowledge that you’ve written one of the most well-received reviews at RocketReviews.com. Don’t forget to email or call your friends to inform them of your greatness. Don’t forget to tell Mom! If a review that you wrote appears in the “Bottom” list, please understand that the web site contains thousands of reviews and only a handful of them are viewed by site visitors each day . The site has been maintaining the review statistics for a very short time, so the ranking of the reviews by popularity is to be taken with a very large grain of salt. Although it is listed in the “Bottom” Continue reading View the Most (and Least) Popular Reviews … You can now download and print a flight log for each rocket in your “Rocket Gallery.” The flight logs are intended to be printed on standard 8.5 x 11″ paper which can be hole-punched to store in a notebook. The flight logs include a summary of the flights already entered and space to record additional flights. To print a flight log, log into RocketReviews.com then select “My Rockets” from the “My Account” menu. Choose a rocket from the list of rockets in your gallery and click on its title. Look in the “What You Can Do” section for links to “Print This Rocket’s Flight Log” and “Print a Blank Flight Log for this Rocket.” The first option generates a downloadable flight log with summaries of the flights already recorded for the rocket and blank entries that you can fill in on-site when launching the rocket. The second option creates a log with just blank entries. Continue reading Printable Flight Logs … |
