SpeedUp has a couple of new posts that sum up the presentation at the X PRIZE Cup and lessons learned there that will help with next year's effort, as well as an offer to sponsors to put their short message on the rocket for $25.
This short blog post might be from an old SpeedUp classmate.
Meanwhile, Unreasonable Rocket is adding to the "to do" list. They also mention some helicopter testing, and I think this post from Randy's Rocketry might have pictures of the testing.
