In general I do not think KCL03 is safe in rockets. It does have real nice power and sound though.

@cplmac2 ill sub and send a request as soon as i type this message.
i wanted to buy salicylate, but benzoate was alot cheaper. i only bought 1lb. but
i wasnt planning on making any rockets with a I.D. larger than 1".
and i make my perchlorates and chlorates so those are free. so im set for a while on construction! thanks for your support!

my first successful whistle motor earlier. it only my third try too!
i used 70/30 KClO4/Benzoatethe first motor didnt whistle, as i did not press it with nearly enough force. the second motor was pressed too hard, and swelled the tube, so it cad an impressive cato. the third was perfect, i made a clamp with pvc pipe and i used it to keep my tube from swelling/splitting.
a very successful flight. ill make an upload soon. ill send you a freind invite and sub so i can share it.
-best regards

Congrats! Glad to hear you had success! I really like 70/30 because it's a very forgiving fuel. Benze isn't the best whistle fuel, but when it works it has a cool raspy sound. Looking forward to seeing it, send the invite.

@cplmac2 i've just started making whistle motors with kclo/benzoate (70/30) and the sound is really raspy.What's the difference if i add 1% Fe2o3 to the mix?.I've uploaded a test video on my channel.Watch it if you want.You're a great rocket maker man!!!

It won't make a big difference but it should be noticeable. Might take some of the raspy sound out, and give the motor a little more power.

@cplmac2 thank you,next time i'll try with Fe2O3.Man, is it obligatory to add vaseline to the mix or can i try making a rocket with the dry mix?

You should use it, it slows the fuel a bit and makes it easier to get the spindle off without damaging your fuel grain. I don't know that I would say it's mandatory, but I've used it EVERY time.
