I recently purchased the Odd'l Rockets Adeptor in a batch of things I ordered from Apogee.
Unfortunately, I have bad legs and squatting or kneeling down on the ground requires assistance getting up most times.I was concerned about how it would go for me with my old Estes basic launch stand...
When shopping around, I saw the Adeptor, and thought it could be a solution for me.
The Adeptor is one of the greatest gadgets I have purchased throughout my on-again-off-again affair with rocketry.
Take a look:
This may not be news to anyone here, but it appears it will be a life-saver for me!
That's an old tripod that I got way, way back in my college days that has been one of those things that I've always kept with me, thinking that it may prove useful one day.
Standing there with no legs extended lifts the launch platform well up into my bend-down zone. And the crank-it-up is still there to be used yet if needed.
You can see the remnants of the old Estes launch stand there, and how much better this "new" launch stand will be for me.
A big THANK YOU goes out to Odd'l Rockets !
Thanks for listening!
