      @Thomas Shiner Really.. well let me know how it goes.. I used to play with rockets when I a young man.. thrilling isn't it? all the hard work and then bang off it goes.. although there is a lot more information out there today then in my day.. I have been thinking af building a pulse motor though.. Good luck lad.. be safe and have a ton of fun!

      It’s a SRBM: short range ballistic missile (it can’t cross the Atlantic), which is fitting because it’s also an SRB (solid rocket booster (assuming you consider the camera as the payload)).

      I'm sure they would've checked before-hand, you can get apps like flightradar24 to track aircraft, I wouldn't be too worried. Though, if it theoretically hit it would be lethal as I believe 10,000ft+ requires cockpit pressurisation, and if a rocket came flying through your cabin and made a huge hole, rapid depressurisation would kill you ( and even if it didn't, you'd have limited time to go below 10,000ft~ to ensure you don't die of hypoxia, not to mention the freezing temperatures )

    Well done. Was similar to one a friend launched in Bong Recreation Area in WI in 2002. Propellant mix was NH4NO3 KClO4 Al Rubber Fe2O3 and sugar as a tempering agent. Ball milled the ammonium nitrate and perchlorate, added a bit of water to make mixing safer, then added rubber latex sugar rust and aluminum to make a mixture similar to pie crust dough in consistancy. Stuffed this into a carpet tube figuring if it blew up it would essentially be a giant firecracker. Next, it cured for 3 weeks along with a size E hobby engine sized test chunk. The rocket was lobbed with a repurposed vehicle air bag inflater as the propellant ignited. It went way up there. Iirc it did require a FAA waiver to launch it, even during the model rocketry meet due to the size and fuel type. 😮

    Hi, I'm new into all this rocket stuff. So can you tell me how did you make the fuel? And is there any difference between the melted sugar rocket and the dry mix sugar rocket? Which one is more powerful? Thanks

    • @solarover13
      @solarover13  5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Neither is more powerful. Melted just has better strength which is needed to upscale motors.

    Im really interested in doing sugar rocket launches along what you did, did you get any sort of certification or approval, or did you just launch when you wanted? Looking for a lead to eventually get into the hobby myself.

    • @solarover13
      @solarover13  6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      I'm a member of the Tripoli rocketry association. They host launches all around the USA (and abroad) and once you get certified Level 2 you can make your own rocket motors, including sugar motors. Being part of a club allows you to focus on the rocket while they deal with all the land permissions and FAA waivers.

    Can a "sling shot" be made that propels the rocket like a bullet for x- distance and than the rocket be initiated at that peak to then launch further? I want to see a joe schmoe send something into orbit.

    • @Tairaa2
      @Tairaa2 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's a pretty difficult thing to do. The height isn't the hard part, it's the fact that you need to propel your rocket to approximately 8000m/s along the tangential axis. The roughly 100-200 km in altitude you need requires only a small fraction of the overall impulse required.

      Maybe with a mortar propulsion system 1st then wifi/bluetooth signal with a battery to spark it?
      If the mortar shoot to (Ex : 2000 meters) and fast enough you have to start the motor at 1750m
      to keep going up straight. If it reach wifi signal, maybe?!
      Me too i know nothing about rocket but i like to imagine things and i test to see if
      it work. Rockets sciences are fun! My last idea is a Starlite casing for the motor.
      Light, heat resistant, no thermal conduction. Now i just need to get it harder to resist pressure.

    How much was the fuel? I mean I know you had a large expense to make the rocket, but after that you only have to pay for fuel each time you launch it, right? How much does the fuel cost each time? How many pounds of each ingredient? VERY nice rocket by the way.

    • @solarover13
      @solarover13  6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Thanks! This particular rocket I spent about $50 on fuel. I used KNDX sugar propellant www.nakka-rocketry.net/dex.html. Theoretically yes it's only $50 to fly again, but one fin cracked on landing and the motor wasn't designed to come apart once assembled, but with the right design you could spend 600-800$ on a re-usable rocket that only costs $50 per flight of something this size.

    • @mojaverockets

      Total cost of this rocket was $25 and $8 for the 'sugar' propellant:
