My friend and I have managed a 500 ft. flight on a single stage, but have had trouble with a two-stage. The main problem of having two equal-sized bottles is weight/thrust ratio at liftoff. We couldn't never get the combined first and second stages high enough with the initial thrust. What this fellow has done is provide more thrust at liftoff using multiple bottles. Very clever and much more efficient.
How in the hell... just how in the hell did this guy manage to get a delayed second stage "pressureized water" rocket to work. Does it have a electronically actuated ball valve that activates on a timer, maybe?
@FlyingPiper13 Saturn V upper stages burned oxygen and hydrogen ... so you do ended up with water coming out of the nozzles! ... Okay ... maybe hot water vapor ... :)
@softfluffydragon405 Sure happy to help out where I can. Many of the details are already described on our website, but if something is not clear, then I'm happy to provide more info.

@originaldriver Full details of how the staging mechanism works can be found on our main website. But you are pretty close as to how it works. :)

Water rockets are for kids. Real Rockets with composite propellant, which i make my own, is for MEN.
