The first Casing 2.0 test featuring the improved nozzle assembly, which failed to live up to its potential due to some below average fuel
I have recently acquired new materials for use in casing construction
The idea is that instead of locating a nozzle manifold on the inside of the rocket casing, it is placed directly on top, and then held in place with … Read More
Third test of Casing 2.0, this time with cast gypsum nozzles
After some consideration and experimentation it was decided that a cast concrete nozzle might be better than a bare washer going forward
R-8 was made to test our cast gypsum nozzles, and is the first test to be conducted in … Read More
The second, slightly more successful casing 2.0 test, and some 3D printing shenanigans
After a short Christmas break, testing resumed on the casing 2.0 design
Main iterations for this test are:
The first test of the (then) new casing 2.0 design, with a spiky thrust graph and interesting failure modes
After acquiring new materials I immediately made a test rocket using my proposed Casing 2.0 design, here are the resulting results
(Due to a interesting casing failure I will also do a “frame by frame” analysis down below)
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:
