  • If it wasn't for those germans in ww2 non of this might not of happened

    well a great job and a credit to you Aerosplice, keep on trucking doodlebug style,

    between me and you Aerosplice, with the stuff they had, or were just getting it together

    i am supprised they did not win the war--well think on that one, you would of been in a bmw, or audi and maybe a volkswagon for the wife, and you know the moon if full of stormtroopers

    watch "iron sky" about to be released soon-have a good one

  • wtf holy shit lolzzzzzzz that was sick

  • ทำอะไรอ่ะ

    

  • wow thank you I hadn't known that a small tank could power an engine that size thank you.

  • that WAS awesome

  • its loud like hell...but interesting it use jet thingy works..

  • wow , what a sound.

    even when the pulsejet stops you still hear the echo.

    ear protectors are required for this project :P

  • no it wasnt that was gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  • Hey, that's awesome. I wanna build one too do you have plans for it?

  • is that a traxxas rustler?

    have to be quicker next timew to catch ;)

  • @1234Guitarman1234 Yeah it's a Traxxas Nitro Rustler! Great Guess!

  • @Aerosplice ok im not smart with like chemistry and stuff but propane burns right?....LIGHT IT ON FIRE! No but seriously that would be awesome...

  • Are you the same guy signed up for the N-Prize? I followed a link on wikipedia that made some pretty outstanding claims about a mini pulsejet. I have trouble believing them (not to call you a liar). The thing that really gets me is the claim of a 2-10 lb thrust gain with the addition of an augmenter and some ducting.

  • @jag9998 Hi there, Yeah, same guy from N-prize. I'm using pulse jets as alternatives to rocket boosters. The mini valveless is now at 6.5 pounds of thrust running on propylene. And the medium valveless is now up to 20 pounds of thrust on Propane with regenerative cooling. I've made some massive improvements on pulse jet design in the last 2 years. I'll have some videos of vertical pulse jet flights within a few weeks. should change some minds about pulse jet potential.

  • @Aerosplice What ISP are you getting?

  • Thats pretty cool, how fast can it go, hey check out my video of a big one fogging out a big park

  • Is that a Traxxas rustler? Have you tried making an augmenter for it? It would be perfect for this application.

  • Yes! It is Traxxas Nitro Rustler. And yes I've made an augmenter for it (yesterday actually). should be ready some time this week. I've moded the fuel system and I'll run the lighter fuel tank, should be very very fast. I'm thinking about getting some on-board video of a speed run too!

  • ha, and twice purchase-price, and 10x the maintenancec costs.

    Nice vid

  • Thanks! Yeah I love Valveless pulse jets.

    Because I refill the propane cylinders myself. it usually works out to be about $0.80 per tank full (8 minute run) and no nasty gasoline spills. Not to mention the fact that I never have to fix the engine or change parts (pesky valves).

  • You should try a valved engine -- you'll get twice the thrust for the same size/volume engine.

  • And twice the crashes from lack of throttleability. You have produced some amazing valved engines, but all real technologies are moving in the direction of solid-state.

  • Ah, but there's more than one way to control thrust ;-)

  • Very true. And don't get me wrong, valved pulse jets are still awesome. One moving part is excellent. There is just an amazing amount on heat and force being put on those valves, and unfortunately beyond their working point. I'm looking at reliability and re-use as critical. plus the self starts are pretty nice.
