Not that hard for me, I have a good memory for numbers. Just watch the video , type as much as I remember, and then watch it again to fill any gaps. And watching it twice is no problem, rockets are awesome! Your channel is the best rocketry channel I've seen.
You are lucky you have a permanent place to launch big rockets my launch site closed down because we were on a navy air field and a rocket landed on a power line
We are very fortunate to have a good site, though nothing is ever truly permanent. We hope to continue our good relation with our land owner for a long time.
This may sound counterintuitive, but while a rocket is coasting, there is more aerodynamic drag on the booster/fin section than on the nose cone. Especially with rockets that have a heavy nose cone (like adding weight to a Big Daddy cone.....), the nose cone may carry more momentum after motor burnout than the booster section. If there is not enough friction between the nose cone and booster section, the two parts can actually separate after the motor burns out. This is known as a drag separation.
This is one of the coolest videos based on one of the coolest rocket designs! Well done!
Great video! Great rockets! I hope you Rocketeers do this contest again.

Great contest. If only we had such a nice launch site in SoCal.
Very cool! Thank you for sharing!
That's awesome!
Just Wow! 😮
This is awesome!
Great video... could someone explain the scoring calculations to me?
Specific impulse is weird. Look it up, and that will be a much better explanation than we can give you.
@@judet2992 it's been a long 2 years and thank you for the reply. I appreciate your time and will be looking into that tonight!
@@FounderOf4 lol no problem.

This is so cool, I feel dumb asking this, but what is a drag separation?

@@flyfalcons wow, I've never thought of that possibility. Thanks for the explanation!
