Nice attempt, but you need to light the grains at the top of the core with an electrical igniter, not at the bottom with a fuse. The motor will come to pressure much quicker, and deliver more of the available impulse. Shame recovery didn't work. Nice work on the airframe. BOYCOTT WMG.
was this rocket core or end burning? With kno3/sucrose proppelants or "candy" proppelants, it is most beneficial to have an unihibited core burning cylindrical grain. I also noticed u used a fuse to ignite ur propellant. This is OK for firework rckts but with the time nd effort put in to this rckt i suggest that u use electric ignition. This not only allows head-end ignition but it allows the flame to propagate around the proppelent givin it a high specific impulse lemme no if ugot any questions
wow nice video. wasnt that great f a launch but maybe next time it will get higher. it is a nice rocket though. what did you use for the airframe? (the center tube the rockets body) and the nose cone? did you just use ply-wood for the fins?
Yeah I would say the Engine and its housing does look a bit on the heavy side. The dynamics of the body and the rocket's altitude do not match well. It needs to go higher! Great one. nice video.
Not an impressive altitude...........nice rocket body. Make a better rocket motor---your motor looks heavy as shit; looks like 2mm metal case!
Make motors out of PVC pipe and cat litter-just make sure nozzles are big enough so there are no explosions--it will be a pity with such a nice rocket.
thats alot of work for that short of a flight, I would put all that energy into a more productive engine. Not talking shit by any means, I love the video, I am currently messing with doublebase smokeless powder and black powder 5:1 solid end burning rockets..thinking the nitroglycerin will hold alot of energy..
Awesome! Was that a competition rocket. Wondering because I remember taking pix of the building process to compete, and I noticed you had some. That was annoying.
hi, is the dextrose kno2 better than the sucrose kno3? do you have any websites with info on this or any formula ratios, thanks anything will be a help.
"self made amateur rocket"?
your rocket built itself? congratulations!
great video though.

How did you get such a nice nozzle? Is the body made by wood?

Yes,using a fuse may be undesireble,but i heard that using one with a rocket is actually illeagle in most states
