what is the comp that is giving the rocket such a nice rising tail? can you give exact recipe. Is it ball milled, is it ever dampened, etc? type of charcoal?
@eddiegnz1 It is simply a 60/30/10 mix ball milled for one hor. Core burner rockets provide this long tail in general. This tail is even biger when you deal with over 2-3lb rockets like the first two.
ok watched your vid again,great breaks mate the third wigler how did you do that looked cool,would be great to make it a regular part of some rockets,have been toying with off setting a rocket on a stick to get it to do that.the first stars were very long lasting were they cut large pump any tips appreciated mate
Third rocket :) It was just luck. I ve no idea how it made this trick. The first stars were C6/Ti but with a bit more dextrin than usual (7-8%). they were pumped stars about 1/2 inch or less in diameter

Nice rocket, good lift and thrust! Only to high for the report effect :), although nice job!

Hi Swerve. Thanks for commenting.
The motors are pressed with a 10tn hydraulic Jack press.
I use special supports in order paper tubes not to bend when pressing.
