A in depth explanation of the first casing 2.0 design
A more detailed explanation of the new Casing 2.0 design
The objective of this new design is to reduce nozzle blowout and thus increase thrust, and improve structural integrity
This is (hopefully) achieved by having 2 different sizes of pipes, … Read More
3 more static tests, featuring the first engine to break the 1kg thrust barrier
After a few days delay due to the holidays I launched rockets 3 to 5 on the improved STTS, which was modified to take readings 50 times per second instead of 10, and keep track of time internally to minimize … Read More
The first 2 static tests, with amazing results!
Today I made 4 and a half rockets, and even managed to test 2 (not bad for 1.5 hours)
Here are the (Amazing!) results:
Rocket 1:
The first major overhaul of the ICBM system, now 100% more reliable!
For a while now, I needed a new, electrical way to ignite my rockets
After a generous donation of Ni-Chrome wire from a friend of mine and the purchase of a 12v lead-acid battery I went to work overhauling my … Read More
Details regarding the first iteration of the STTS system
I have been working on a way to measure thrust over time of my rockets for a while now
After a good friend of mine got me a 5kg load cell and alot of procrastinating I put it together
A minor failure of the launch, not a minor rocket failing to launch
I have recently made 3 rocket motors based on sorbitol
I still had 2 left over, so I decided to try them instead of letting them absorb moisture and become useless
Since the previous one was such an unsuspected success … Read More
My very optimistic phase 2 plans
First test launch of a Sorbitol based sugar rocket, and the procedure used to make it
Details from a short detour about using gunpowder as rocket fuel (which ended up going nowhere, literally)
Footage from the trails and tribulation of unguided short range near horizontal rocket tests
A Test had been conducted testing the Electrical Ignition System and the engines ability to propel themselves against gravity
Rocket 1 (Small Relative Diameter)
