[mrbaseball1214]

[SQUIRALBOY43]

[SQUIRALBOY43]

FUCK YOU I AM JEALOUS

[artamous]

@SQUIRALBOY43 jealous about what?

[artamous]

I have the viking and about 40 other rockets that all have their own characteristice.

alpha can go about 2000 ft and comanche about 2700

[daviewavie112]

[thecolorofdirt]

Nice film job.

[skaterboy3o3]

crappiest filming ever

[camharris133]

[motormx]

i use to have one of those but i lost it i put a rocket about 3 sizes to big in it and boom

[lochinvar00465]

Great rocket. Mine flies on 12 C6-5's in a cluster(equiv to G72). Had to add weight to the nose as well as put a bigger chute on it.

thanks

Its not safe to Launch Rockets in the rain right?

[jackdeath]

Safer than flying a kite in a thunderstorm, but, yeah, it's certainly not wise to launch a rocket in the rain. Everything gets wet and the high winds don't help.

[Mazda6B6]

you camera Noob!

[lmc169]

how the f*** did you catch it?

[artamous]

It was a combo, I have done this as a hobby for yrs, that one only goess 600-800 feet so you can follow it easier and still time to run far enough. I had to run a little over 1/4 mile. Fun hobby and great rocket to buy

[hobosmurf]

which engine was in it

[PrinceBR373]

These kinds of rockets can be found at Michaels and Walmart

[lochinvar00465]

True. But the "Big Daddy" is hard to find. After all else fails, try eBay!

[MarkSyno]

Nice catch!

[zice39]

i think backing up the camera might make it easier to track. go a little wider too.

[hoarp001]

Im a proper camera guy and I use bigish broadcast cameras and I tried filming rockets the other day and its buggeringly hard. Following something so small going so fast against the sky is not easy....

[artamous]

Hey thanks. I think the filming could have been better with most of these but it is a 11 yr old filming some and even if it was me I cant follow just perfect either, site is lost at times

[artamous]

The launch after this one chute didnt come out and crashed in the middle of the high traffice street so lots of work. The 2 or 3 launch days these were recorded it was 11/12 yr olds filming and me chasing. These are posted mainly for their friends to see, far from expert movie recorder though

[atom2009]

Gotta spend 12 dollars for 3 more engines and try to lunch it again and get it on film.

[GruntofAction]

Get some one else to film next time..

Like someone who knows what they are supost to film.

If u say that gay "Accept or deny but it is the kids that film and use older people that chase" thing im gonna kill u.

And if u reply with a "

[artamous]

Accept or deny but it is the kids that film and use older people that chase. 9 year old nephew was photographer, I am the one catching it

[ipomoeaviolacea]

see that square hole on the camera? it's called the "view finder" - look through it when you record.

[dpurtill]

u suck at filming cmon man

[artamous]

Accept or deny but it is the kids that film and use older people that chase
