Andrew's 15 motor cluster rocket

15 motors to light at once off the pad, the motor part worked so well they exceeded the speed of the vehicle. Seen at Red Glare 3 at MDRA.

what size engines did you use for each, probably no bigger than a G17-40 im guessing due to the weight. i have a hard time sometimes getting a 3 cluster of F23's off the ground !

looked awesome though!!!!!

[VooDooRocketry]

All EX H motors if I recall correctly

What were the motors? It wasn't supposed to lawn dart like that was it?

[VooDooRocketry]

No it was supposed to have a chute, but the motors exceeded the ability of the materials. It had 15 38mm EX motors....exactly what their designation was is unknown to me.

more angle on those would've lent to more vertical thrust, it seems a great deal of energy was spent in diagonal vectors in stead of vertical, so i wonder of all those motors, hoe much energy was spend canceling eachother's diagonal thrust out?

@VooDooRocketry was their a central motor?

I guess getting to start burning at the same time is easier than getting them to STOP burning at the same time.

Wow, I didn't think it would work at the beginning. The more motors, the more chance of stuffing up.

Got just a little out of sorts, what?

I couldn't make out in the background that smartass conversation, but I think it went something like this:

"Wasn't that made by Boing?"

"You mean, Boeing?"

"No, it went up, and then went Boi - iing!"
