This is the third test of our new rocket motor. This motor is regeneratively cooled and operates on peroxide and gasoline. During this test the motor is operating on peroxide only. The peroxide is first decomposed by a silver catalyst at the head of the motor. The catalyst is not performing as expected and is not decomposing all of the peroxide. Once the catalyst is dialed in, gasoline will be injected into the combustion chamber. The decomposition products should ignite the gasoline.
This test was performed near Mojave, CA. The video is unedited.
