Hi guys! im back!
this is the first thing ive made on my new workshop!
so enjoy!, this is a new motor for me, it still needs a bit of work, but i feel ive got a good platform to fine tune on now!

This was the loudest thing i have literally ever heard, the echo just roared through the streets, all the way to the end of the video!

I think the "pop" was your nozzle blowing out. Maybe the core was too wide? Did you ever recover it?

Regardless, that was awesome... Hell of a header! :D

DAMN dude, a really nice rocket!

Loved the thunder-like report, did you lit that thing near a beach or something?

Sounded like a nade going off ;)

yeah it really was like thunder! yeah was on the beach nearby, which was probably a mistake as the coastguard might have mistake it for a distress signal! lol
