You reached a new standard with this video. From the choice of project, to how it was presented and edited. Everything was an improvement in my opinion. Great job.
OH MY GOD this video is so good. It is more engaging and easier to follow for newcomers, AND THE LAUNCH IS SO CLEAN WHY AM I SCREAMING
Agreed
I totaly agree with you, but at the end of the video I would have liked a little bit more explaning of what exactly happend during the launch.
Engineering IS hard. Success is that much sweeter! Nice job, and great video production!
I like the humor. I did totally laugh at the time remaining voiceover.
Hearing "yeet factor" as an engineering term honestly just made my night. Thanks for that
That’s where the word yeet came from it came from a German propulsion’s expert in the 1940s
7:29, for anyone wondering.
@@vincentb5431 thanky you
"It's just model rockets"... 30 years later, the guy is running a Earth to Mars logistics company. Do. Not. Stop. Ever!
Amazing video as always, keep it up!
So ... necessary, yes that must be the future Elon is dreaming about 😉
Ok... I LOVE this idea, and the editing (with the speed-shifted drill to match the music) was BRILLIANT!!
@Colin Quirk i curse you. you shall receive ZERO likes on this post. NO ONE WILL LIKE IT NO ONE!!!!!!
@@__shifty i liked it
Create a vacuum in the silo and vacuum launch, then light. That’d impress me @bps.space

hmmm.. I would love to see Black Gryph0n Geek out with rocketry... Seen the new SpaceX Crew 1 stream?
"So yeah I accidentally launched an ICBM at the neighbor's house"
No need a ICBM for that
If I do that, I will not call it an accident.
i to did that as a kid...ended my rocket scientist idea
when you go from making rockets to making missiles
"HELLO MR UN"
yeah yeah Revolutionise bebe gun to a to AH rail Gun!
yo yo Rail gun to a geometry of plasma electric Maggrav life with aunt may Adamantly.
technically because of korean name structure its mr kim
@@KUSHDFIFA technically no one cares about technicalities
@@thatjokerperson7062 im just sayin
"the yeet factor was very high"
did I hear that correctly?
@@semicortex that would be awesome haha
Its an engineering term, Im sure
@@Vantasner4214 I sometimes love to use made up words casually in engineering meetings. Half the time the other engineers are too proud to say "What?"
Yee
did i just hear that man say yeet factor?
Dude, that tiny split-second pause at the top of the thoomp before ignition is so, so satisfying. That was a pleasure to watch. Keep it up!
I don't know if I would have been so excited about the actual launch if it hadn't been for the first two failures.
I came that moment
Very gentle burn too when the rocket motor ignites.
It really was 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I can actually imagine someone at SpaceX picking up the term _Yeetfactor_ as an official description xD
the small details, like the musical score at 1:47 with the drill, is what makes me rewatch this so much!
Bury the silo in the ground and launch the rocket. Would be quite cool
I was in CAP and we got to be on Vandenberg A.F.B. (Security post) during a launch in 1972. But yes cool idea.
@Eric Miret he worked as a security dude for a day and got to see a rocket launch in 1972, it was *neat*
I was a cadet in the Civil Air Patrol and my Squadron was was given permission to be at various security post around the base to watch a twin minute man launch. My post with the security team was in a concrete bunker near the launch silos. I was given ear plugs, ear covers, and safety helmet (more like a riot gear helmet). I was 14 at the time and was the most intense thing I saw at the time.
@@StMyles I'm joining the civil air patrol, is it good?
@@StMyles I think the confusion stems from how random your comment also was. Because you gave us a personal anecdote, but then said yes cool idea. So quite confusing.
I love the editing in this video! The walk through of your build, the problem solving, amazing cinematography, and a clear well thought out explanation. Brilliantly done! Not to mention the epic rocket!
love the gag too lol I'd say you have permission to get a little heavy handed, this is not simply model rocketry. This is Scale Aerospace.
this one of your best videos by far. The music, the 3D model and, the video of the build are all amazing additions to the video. It made it feel like a Vox video on rockets and it was made by a professional editor :) P.S. are you going to the area 51 raid to find dem aliens :)
yep this video so good
Except vox is bad. You're not bad. Just Vox
So true
I agree
Felt forced and artificial to me. Cool rocket tho.
8:14 the respect for engineering. Being an Engineering student your videos really really inspire me to grow with similar dreams. Thanks a lot Joe Barnard
1:48 I appreciated the drill key scale change
me too
Nobody:
North Korea: right click, save as
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He better watch out North Korea is known for kidnapping people 😳😳😳
Yes
Love it
haha!
Yo legit the first part feels like a live stream intro for some reason... so well made
It reminded me of an investigative news Podcast
Can we all take a moment to welcome the new physics metric:
"The YEET Factor"
This pops up every 3 months or so in my feed and I watch it every time. The excellent music syncing with the drill, the CAD drawings and 3d printing and finally the epic launch with that momentary stop when the engine ignites... Just amazing.
7:30 I love how there’s signs on the rocket pointing to where the dirt is and where space is
Seeing it pop out of the silo and then blast off, put a smile on my face. Great work
Absolutely phenomenal video, Joe! The cinematography, the style, and most importantly the music is truly outstanding. This is by far THE best video I have seen on TH-cam this entire year. Not only does it give a great explanation of what you're trying to do, but it inspires other makers like us to push forward - even if it's just a project for fun!
Be proud of yourself - you're doing great! Now I've gotta go out and make something cool...
AMKK Productions .... right ! It tells a story .
Is it just me, or this guy looks like elon musk but younger
#OffBrandElon
He does. And he knows it
Yea I see it
He’s his son so...
@@testfortester7131 The long lost musk Son. Just following his long lost dad's footsteps, one step for man one giant leap for mankind.
5:57 best editing evar
Man, that whole series is a bomb! I'm actually on the last phase of my master's thesis, where i need to design my own reaction control system of a rocket and your videos help me so much with it. In fact, some time ago I was dreaming about building a rocket and now, since I gained a lot of knowledge regarding this stuff through both my work on thesis and your videos - I'll surely go for it. I even shed a tear, when I saw a moment of rocket engine ignition. You are an inspiration. Thanks a lot!
Now, make a underwater (submarine style) silo launch.
Yeaahh Agree!
It would be Awesome 😃
Cool 😎 idea.
would require way more thrust than a simple piston can provide
@@ConfusedPlushiee not necessarily. Look up cavitation or underwater launched rockets. Most create a vacuum or air bubble around the surface of the missile/rocket. This makes the rocket basically fly in vacuum/air underwater, dramatically reducing drag almost to as if it was above ground.
@@jheins3 but isnt that a bit too complex for model rockets?
1:47 love the drill sound/music sync😀
That cannot have been easy!
Perfect.
Just wow! So much attention to detail, not just the rocket but also the video. Love how the drill sound matches the music 😃
yeah it was amazing
Indeed some impressive editing skills!
You can tell he’s also a musician by the music going on, I love it!
This is one of the highest quality channels I have ever found. Amazing work man! I really need to get into rockets.
*Music by Joe Barnard*
Knew that music degree would come in handy.
I'm here because my friend Austin said you were cool.
You are cool.
Austin isn't my friend but I came anyway!
i came cause of austin too
Luis Arano you’re cooler
Austin is my guy
Austin is like “THE” best
5:58 God that voiceover was so creepy 😂 Loved it!
😂😂😂
@@desertdronepilot wtf dude hahaha lol
me: mom can we get elon musk
M: we have elon musk at home

That’s because this video is from God
I really like that fact that he does engineering and music all-in-one
ROFL at 5:55! That was awesome. Looks like you had a lot of fun both developing and testing the launcher as well as making this video. Congratulations on the successful launch!!! It looked BEAUTIFUL!!
Right? 😂
I love the way it comes to a complete stop, and then fires and departs!
Super cool launch, the timing was perfect
"The Yeet Factor" lmao
What CAD software do you use? Looks to me either like sw or fusion.
By the way, this video is super well done!
Or the more scientific word "Jerk"
@@jamesmnguyen I did laugh when I first learned that term. "Meters per second per second... per second"
THAT WAS AMAZING. It’s so so so satisfying to see it hanging in the air for a moment before the motor kicks in at the exact right time. So cooooll!!!!
My thoughts exactly! I absolutely loved that part! I guess Joe could have been less impressed because he wrote the code for that to happen, so it was expected and not novel...
Anyway what an amazing video Joe! This is like the 5th time I've watched it.
This was very well produced, Joe! My favorite video so far!
Absolutely!
Mad points for the multiple attempts, grit and humor. Way mad props for making it happen! Congrats!
Just found this channel and it’s so great - cinematography is amazing, the script is hilarious, and the rocketry is so advanced!!! I love it!
I love how the drill varied pitch as it drilled the holes and sunk the screws.
I was impressed by the 4:33 seconds left, until I realized you just did a voice over for that 😂
1:48 That editing is my purpose in life!
Ngl this is literally the most visually appealing rocket launch ever
this trully is the best video I've ever seen. I come back to rewatch this every time I am out of motivation
Elon Musk looks ten years younger, how does he do it?
you just made a copyright infridgement
Unicorn blood
@@admiralpercy OH CRAP, YOU FOUND MY SECRET
"No practical application" How bout a giant scale SSBN RC sub? I think there's potential there $$ lol
that's what i was thinking
Needs a proper gas generator for tube ejection. 😉
And, I mean, this is basically a shoulder-launched RPG. So clearly has a practical purpose.
Go check out Russian icbm launch this is their excect system. Its amazing at a larger scale
Haha! Same!
1:50 that editing is my purpose in life
I did a silo launch experiment around 1990. I made a rocket out of ¾" pcv tubing, put on folding fins made from plastic drinking cups, and put the "D-1" Estes motor on top of the tube. The motor was placed there so that I could line the tube with gunpowder from a shot gun shell, held on with gasoline. The added boost from the gunpowder/gasoline would significantly energize the rocket. The rocket then went into my custom made launch silo.
I calculated that the rocket motor, with extra boost, contained in the launch tube, would really make this puppy fly like a literal bat out of hell!
My friend and I went to a local grassy park in Southern California for our first test flight. The small bit of gasoline was dribbled inside the rocket tube, then sprinkled with gunpowder. The igniter was attached to the motor at the top of the rocket. Rocket slid into launch tube, wiring set. We took shelter behind our nearby car, just in case.
The button pushed, and the rocket blasted out of the tube perfectly, for about 5 feet, or 1 second.
Apparently, using pvc tubing was an unforseen problem. The intense heat from the motor at the top, with combined burning from the boost mix, heated the tubing to its near melting point. As soon as the rocket cleared the tube, it became like wet spaghetti, and the motor thrust was 'vectored' like high pressure water coming out of a loose garden hose.
The rocket went up left, right, forward, and back, right at us. We ducked, and hoped the terror of the out of control missile would end before anyone was damaged.
The spent projectile plopped to the ground after traveling 20 circuitous feet. The rocket body was twisted like a Twizzle liquorice stick. We were laughing our heads off at the results, and the fact that we were in one piece.
I'd made 2 of these things, so naturally we tried it a second time, only with no gunpowder/gasoline now. We got further back, hit the power, and.... same thing. Our ordinance went crazy, like a heat seeking 'Sidewinder' looking for a nonexistent MiG-29! We ducked behind my car. Plop! went the errant pvc tube, bent like a soggy pretzel stick.
We went back to our garage laboratory, to make our next ridiculous toy; a BAZOOKA! Fortunately, that ended when we realized that if someone saw us shooting a shoulder launched, directional rocket, that we might be mistaken for terrorists, and there was a lot of that going on then.
We didn't have the money for lawyers to explain that we're just hobbiests, experimenting with novel homemade toy rockets. It's also against model rocket doctrine to be able to aim your rocket at anything. We were planning on shooting down low level kites. Bad idea.
I'd made my own JAVELIN out of 3 feet of 4 inch gray pvc tube, with a toy squirt gun handle, push button trigger, and a metal computer cooling fan screen for a sight. The missile was once again ¾" pvc, with the nose cone made from a large 'Crayola Crayon' top I'd gotten from Goodwill.
This made it look exactly like a Russian RPG! It was beautiful, and entirely stupid. If the police saw me with this, in 1990, I would have either been shot dead on sight, or still be rotting in a federal jail.
Regretfully, I threw the whole contraption away. But it would have been glorious!
God, how awesome would it be to have this type of equipment around with no worries of opporation! I really understand, the world needs all this!
Who else thought this was a video of a recent ICBM test by the USAF
DH Yukon actually it’d be the Russians. US Minuteman missiles hot launch (rocket motor propels it) out the silo while the Russians use a missile that cold launches like this.
@@MrMattumbo Well yes, the US Air Force and Navy only uses hot launch systems come to think of it. I meant the thumbnail as a joke, not the video itself. The only cold launch system used by the US Military I can remember of the top of my head would be the javelin, although that's from a launch tube, not a silo.
The production quality for this was amazing good job Joe
Gotta be the coolest thing I've seen yet. Seeing those SS-18 rockets was awe inspiring, then this!
You can be 1000% proud. That 3 attempt looked awesome
This is absolutely incredible. I’ve greatly enjoyed watching your progress over time. This work is top notch.
Sometimes watching your videos I feel like I’m watching a different version of October Sky. Keep up the good work!
"Wow! Thats not good!" The sentiment of pretty much every engineer in every field after seeing the test results of their first prototype.
Imagine explaining the rocket launcher in your backseat to the officer that pulls you over :))
Just go on as enthusiastically as possible for at least 5 minutes. After that, the officer will be so lost with your explanation and impressed with your enthusiasm he/she will know that you're legit! They might still call the bomb squad, but they'll know that you're legit - lol!
@Thane Mac just replace liberal with ignorant and you're good
"It is so easy to see your mistakes after the fact and so hard to catch them before it's too late." Profound my friend, profound.
Did this 35 years ago on a much simpler platform. Built a rocket based on the Estes "scram" rocket with spring loaded fins. After several static tube launches we graduated to a shoulder launched model. No fancy electronics just a 16" rocket on a D-engine and some burnt Mullets.
While he said 4 minutes and 33 seconds left his mouth went “ba ba ba”
He does that often.
TheRedstoneHive oh whale
one of my favorite parts of video
05:57
i think it's "bla bla bla".
Are you trying to make your own S-300 or Tor air defense system?
I feel like I'm watching Elon Musk's little brother follow in his footsteps.
...Model Rocket, Model Roadster, Model Musk?
I just noticed something, your video production quality is very high and "music by Joe Barnard" makes it even more impressive. Oh... and there's that rocket thing that you do.
Don't know how I missed this vid when it came out but that's one of the most satisfying launches I've ever seen
I didn’t think your videos could get more professional but they have!!
Also was the clip of you first talking all one take?!
I don’t think we have ever done anything in one take
The production quality is off the charts on this video... SUPERB! And that launch mechanism and in-flight ignition... Super sexy!!! I love it, cheers! 👏😁👍
Ahhhhhh!!! Your getting real close to some REAL military technology... BE CAREFUL!!! (Former Missile Defense Technician)
Well it only needs a charge to be a missile... this could easily be scaled
Its kinda scary how one person could potentially make short range rockets/missiles for pittance (in comparison) in his garage. Although this is probably closer to a mortar than a missile...
What the legalities here with the guidance?
@@SkinnerBeeMan When people get close to creating proprietary systems they begin to get attention from official agencies. Especially systems with a potentially dangerous capacity.
Just hire the guy
Never heard of your channel before - YT recommended it, but WOW this is the freaking coolest model rocket launch I've ever seen! Now I'm going to get stuck watching model rocket launches in the YT rabbit hole now thanks haha. THis along with the Falcon Heavy rocket at the end of the vid just got you a sub... awesome.
Back in 1985 I built an underwater tube that housed a model rocket and successfully launched it from under the surface of the lake. Right out of the lake at Smith Park in Middletown, Ohio. I still have the plans and all those present on that day, still live today. Rockets are fun
5:57 when you desperately need to hit the 10 minute mark for ad revenue
For him, I don't mind one bit o7
i couldn't understand the mouth glitch until this comment, i was kinda scared by thinking he was a robot ahahahah
Mltvrse Music not a glitch, he did a voiceover bc the actual video is very long before editing. He just did some mouth movements. You can here where he punched in his voice.
1:55 Is quarantine making me crazy or did I just hear drill sounds following do, re, mi, fa, so, la, si??
Wow! That was some real Peter McKinnon type next level shit 😍. Amazing.
I am from India🇮🇳 and I really like your project & hardwork behind this😊
Lots of support from India😊
Man that launch was PERFECT! Right at the apex of the air powered launch.
7:30 "the yeet factor"
amazing
I came here because the Everyday Astronaut told me to.
Who taught you how to set tent stakes, boy?! 😂🙄
LOVE the thrust vectoring nozzle. Well done all around.
As a former Poseidon missile tech on board a submarine, I found your video interesting. Thanks for sharing.
”This project has no practical use anyway so might as well add a roadster” was the most non-insult insult I've ever heard.
like some anti drone missile :0 I LOVE IT!
I've watched this about ten times now. I love absolutely everything about it. Top notch content!!!! Also - where can I buy your bada$$ e-funk music? (I'm serious, I want to listen to this all the time).
8:53 is just hilarious 😂😂😂
I was honestly getting so inspired by his speech :D
@@liambaker8261 I was to. I was Like YEAAAA! Then I was like ok. But Then I was Like yeaaaaa
i just love when it just freeze in the air for half a second and then flies up
If the rocket ignited sooner, some of the directional momentum wouldnt be lost, allowing for a more efficient transition... Great Stuff! This is the type of tech & people we should be investing into!
this is such a good video. ive watched this like 10 times
You should commence an underwater launch
Elon was just a wee little lad when he tried launching a tesla into space for the first time....
Good point about engineering. The WW2 Mk 42 torpedo is a fine example of engineering without testing. The weapon was a near total failure for the first two years of the war.
Impressive final results. You made a model of the cold war Polaris missile.
The YEET factor. omg I can see this term being used academically
4:55 I have the same rubber mallet from Lowes, so Im essentially a rocket engineer.
Who Is from Austin Videooo??
Me: Mom can we get *Elon Musk*
Mom: We have *Elon Musk* at home
*Elon musk* at home:
You're f-ing awesome! Keep it up man! I'd donate $ if I wasn't broke. You're so inspiring. The world needs more of you!
This is the coolest model rocket launch I have ever seen.
