Blackpowder to BP/ Ti Rocket - 50g (3") Ti Salute

[chickenvsbigdog]

HAHHah the laugh at the end

[PSPFREAK221155]

@murdoch2486 do you ball mill your black powder

[PSPFREAK221155]

@murdoch2486

how many grams for the fuel

pressed or hamerd ???

[murdoch2486]

@PSPFREAK221155

theres about 20g of fuel in these motors.

and its rammed, with homemade tooling.

[PSPFREAK221155]

was that a meal fuel

[murdoch2486]

@PSPFREAK221155

yeah, you should never really be using granulated black powder for fuel, it just increases the liklihood of getting air pockets in your fuel grain.

Wow looks just like a Zink 902 :D Very nice job you did there! But err, I have a question: Can I just use a KNO3 + sugar rocket engine to launch these things? I like that better than a BP engine... And of course there will be a fuse from engine to the explosive top ;)

5/5!

[murdoch2486]

@mleer58

cheers mate! glad you enjoyed the show!

yes you can use KNO3/ Sugar engines, but if you can get hold of some Sulphur and Charcoal, BP is definately the way to go! :)

[mleer58]

@murdoch2486

OK, I'll see ;)

Dunno where I can get the Sulphur from, cause they don't sell this in Holland (Stupid laws)

KNO3/Sugar is a lot easier to get.

But I'll just have a look at the net, maybe I can buy it that way :P

Btw, what did you use for the explosion and tail? It's probably magnesium, right?

[theguywith1face]

Ahh the old pyro laugh we all perform :P Good times! Nice work as well mate.

[murdoch2486]

@theguywith1face

haha, the signature laugh! :)

cheers mate!

[AlienInferno]

Great rocket.  Really enjoy your vids. I'm just starting out but do you press your rockets or hand ram them?

[murdoch2486]

@AlienInferno

cheers mate :)

I personally hand ram my rockets, as it gives great results, without the added price of a hydraulic press into the equation!

It can take a bit of getting used to, but youll pick up the technique in no time!

good luck

[pyr0ph1L]

REALLY awesome rocket. Wish I was there :P

[murdoch2486]

@pyr0ph1L

thanks a lot mate!

haha, yeah anytime you are in the UK come along and see them for yourself!
