I enjoyed your short video. I am curious as to why the rockets are angled instead of in line with the airframe. Also, since the burn is so short, I wonder if another bank of rockets fired after the first rockets burn out would take the aircraft higher. To the fellow who thinks he can throw harder: maybe, but you throwing is not near as cool as watching this take off. :)
the point of all this crap is to show that theys people don't have lives. to soup theys planes up just so they can do cool shit and stuff. its just dumb
@Marzmany Truly cool vid! Although it was a RATO (Rocket Assisted Take-Off) launch, NOT JATO(Jet Assisted Take-Off) it was cool! Next time use an E-F or higher it has more thrust and burn time, hence higher lift-off and more flight time! I am not a behind my desk-know-all, or expert, I have enjoyed rockets and all forms of R/C for 12 years. Just friendly support and advice! Keep filmin cool shit BRO!
@MyWillyboi They call it "JATO" even though they are, technically, rockets. The Blue Angels support C-130 has always demonstrated "JATO" take-offs, not "RATO". But it does use solid propellant rockets. That said, a bungee could be staked in the ground as easily as that launch system is set up and be far more effective at getting the aircraft some elevation AND be smaller and lighter to carry AND not compromise the performance of the aircraft after the launch with all that un-aerodynamic baggage.
you should buid it so the rockets are on a small module that falls off from gravity after the burn. and the thrust will keep the module pushed into a slot(s) in the fuselage.
@mgrande11, I doubt it. This system will be released in Afghanistan later this year for the remote launch of surveillance aircrafts. Are you going to wait in the desert for the military to tell you to throw one of these?
ultralight/sailplane..w/e you wanna call it...they're gliders well normally , but some have engines on the front so that your not totally dependent on gravity + wind
that is one of the coolest things I have seen in R/C in a while Nice Job brother!

how do you get a glider to fly
nitrorcfreak100 8 months ago
What model name glider is that? It looks like an Olympia (Olympic?) II.
Very creative and cool. Way to go.

You should find a way to jetisson the rockets after takeoff. Maybe some sort of "umbilical".. or this might not end well....

You need longer running rockets. Other than that, you've got it well figured out!

@5a1tY It is full speed. I could speed it up more if you'd like :)

@Marzmany Still, this clearly doesn't seem to be played at full speed.
