I was curious to see how strong this rocket really was. I originally built it with Kevlar and fiberglass wrappings. Then it had a ballistic nosedive and was lost somewhere on Snow Ranch. It was discovered a year later by the cattle ranchers. So I put a new nose on her, and decided to try an extreme stress test the massive acceleration of a Cesaroni Aerospace J1520 Vmax motor, delivering 375 lbs of thrust in an intense burst.

First it knocks the launch rail completely over, and then the blast hits the ground videocam on mini-tripod and knocks it over as well.

Soon after launch, you can hear Eriks chaser rocket. There was a third videocam on my rocket that was to record the whole event from above, but alas, it was not properly armed. Doh!

  • If you really want to stress test it borrow Eriks AMW 54/2550 casing and get an AeroTech L2300G.
