I've done R&D my entire life and done stuff from chemistry to pyrotechnics to high temperature organic chemistry to hardware and software development back when we had to program our embedded controllers in assembly language and I want to tell you that you are doing WONDERFUL work in multiple fields. Pyrotechnics, rocket science, software and hardware, advanced mathematics, data acquisition and control, videography, photography and using these as documentation and then the editing of the media and doing a kick ass captivating presentation along with a financial revenue model. This is hard enough for 5 people let alone 1. So from one professional development engineer to someone who will be a shining star of a development engineer I say well done. Don't stop, don't listen to those 'biting' at your heals and the trolls. F'em and keep on pushing forward. I think there are MANY companies watching you now, or will be and you've not heard from them yet because if it was me, I'd be waiting to see your full up falcon heavy launch with everything landing itself. On the subject of of your center core motor mount. I'd start with a 'thick' specialty aluminum foil that you can wrap around a mandrel w/ an adhesive to make version 1. Then maybe magnesium, maybe do an experiment with fiberglass but I'd tell you that carbon fiber IS the future of many thing and that you should jump in with both feet and start to learn the field of carbon fibers and do it yourself. Make your own oven for curing it and everything. To the youtube community I'd say that BPS.space, styropyro and Nurdrage are probably 3 of the most intelligent people on youtube and with styro and BPS being 'young' I think they are VERY worthy of patreon support. I've not done ANY patreon support of any youtubers but I'm ready to open an account just so I can support styropyro and BPS.space. The younger generations of engineers that are coming up that show exceptional talent and personal skills deserve our mentorship and support and guidance from those of us who are accomplished in our field. Please join me in supporting BPS.space. Also, I suggested you switch from black powder to Unique 'pistol/shotgun' powder as your 'gas generator' to make things move. Not only will this get rid of your smoke signature, not be hydroscopic (KNO3 in BP) but it WILL give you a mass reduction that you are looking for. The Chinese pyro igniters you are using are good and work well but for igniting the Unique powder I think you'll like the faster reaction of doing a 'bridge wire' with 50ish gauge nichrome wire and mount it on a bridge chip. Skylighter and others have full documentation and supplies. I would NOT put their pyroformula solution on the bridge igniter because as long as you made sure the Unique powder was in direct contact with the bridge wire I think that is all of the ignition you need. You don't need the other chemistry and the 'pop' you get from a commercial electrical igniter.
Steven Harris if he uses magnesium for a motor tube mount, there is a high chance of ignition of the magnesium which would result in the loss of the rocket and anything it hits. Magnesium once ignited self oxygenates and emits high UV radiation. Best not to use it around flame.
I have an idea make an aluminium skirt like the starship/bfs to help deflect heat probably the most cost effective option 1mm sheeting and cutting and bending it into a cone type shape I’m sure you could figure out how to integrate this into the rocket just an idea
Worst part is that they will be 48 times closer to being right, since the Earth is "bigger", but luckily it is still a long way to infinite. (i.e. using the earths radius as a measure of curvature)
This was the best model rocket launch I've ever seen. I don't need the thing to fly high, I just love seeing advanced technologies for stability, data logging etc all fit in one tiny scale rocket model.
Great work... impressive! Anyone who has tried to make something from nothing can appreciate the design process you have gone through. Its incredibly satisfying seeing your design and hard work come to life before your eyes.
Im a machinist and if you ever need anything made from metal we can get in contact and set something up, im very interested in this project and i want to see it succeed!!!!!!!!!
Cody Funk I don’t know the specifics of this rocket but if he is making it to be a class 1 model rocket then he can’t have metal parts, however if he gets the airspace clearance and makes it a class 2 High-Power rocket he can have metal parts added.
Reilly S Not sure, but I’m pretty sure screws, electronics, etc are fine. but I know that making the rocket out of metal or having metal pieces on the rocket are restricted to high power rockets
wierdness and gaming hmm, I’m currently working on a tvc rocket with a CNC machined aluminium tvc mount. I don’t see much wrong with that? Why would there be those restrictions anyway?
The little time before launch and the smoke ejected make everything ! With spotlights and evening light, this looks truly awesome and realistic. Great job Joe!
Incredible! Nice to see your work pay off in spectacular fashion! There are still lots to improve and please keep everyone updated. Really enjoying the way you are getting people interested in rocketry ans space exploration.
Whats so cool about this is you said it went so well but actually things went wrong, yet you were so positive about it because you learned so much. At that moment is when you realize you really love what your doing if you ask me.
The technology that you are using is out of this world. The fact that it is all available at hobby stores is awesome. I love your ingenuity and enthusiasm. Keep up the great work.
Hi BPS. My partner and I also make 3D printed scratch rockets, and we found either spraying the motor mounts (and any other high temp exposed areas) with a BBQ or high temp paint (usually up to 700c), or printing that part out of something like ABS works just fine until H+ motors, or a couple of stacked G's. I can't remember the exact number, but ABS max temp is something like 200c+, where PLA is 60c The one issue with spraying them with the high temp paint is that after it's set, you are meant to then expose it to high heats to seal it. This is hard to do without distorting the PLA. If you have covered the entire piece, the oven does actually work OK without melting it. But if you have areas masking taped, or exposed, you will need to delicately use a hot-air gun, using swiping motions. EDIT: Considering most of your motors are slow burn motors, you may need additional protection.. I'm not sure the above will be enough for something burning for close to 10 seconds.
@@orulz1 imgur.com/a/40kyOx3 This is one I just built today. (It's surface still needs another sand and coat). Goes 1215 kph + 5000ft on a G motor. Takes E to G motors in Aerotech RMS reload system.
@@orulz1 We do high powered also, but you'll have to wait till launch season for those pics! (It's fire season here in Australia, so we can't launch big stuff)
I'm not an expert, but what you might want to try is bringing the print up towards melting temp on the surface, let it cool slowly (...I know the cheap method of this, just broiling the surface, does the same thing to an extent - which is stabilizing the surface welds, not strengthening the plastic in any way). And then coating it with reflective paint. So you'd have both a stronger weld (or fewer weaker welds, more likely), and less heat transferred to the actual plastic where the welds would expand and then break. Pretty much a stop-gap measure to be able to use 3d-printed plastic parts, but pretty sure it would be enough. If you really need the actual rocket to be firing in the printed parts, at least - which I'm guessing is going to reduce the correction factor by a... bunch.. ;)
I concur with switching to ABS. I also suggest coating the heat exposed parts with metal. Try the metal duct tape meant for sealing air leaks or perhaps reflective gold thermal barriers used in automotive industry. These should be used in the motor containment areas of the ABS printed motor mounts.
I love your persona in-front of the camera, natural and engaging. I have no interest in model rockets but watching your channel is vastly entertaining. You will go far.
Just discovered your channel and this is sooo awesome! Having just gotten into building drones in the past year and always being a spaceflight fan this channel is better than drugs!!
Randomly brought here.. That moment when you realize he's built a scale Replica that's got more computational power than the one that started the whole space thang in the first place.
Hi, i am from formula student team where we produce all carbon fibre aero things in our workshop. This technology require molds, vacuum bag and oven with pid software. Carbon is much ligther instead of pla/abs fdm or even sls printing. If You want reduce work You can buy carbon tubes from aliexpress and just make some mounting inside.
TH-camr AVE is looking for suggestions on how to use his new CNC machine I think there's a great opportunity for a mashup video where he manufactures your aluminum mounts
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET. It’s happened. I am 5000x beyond excited for this. Can we get a version of this set to “Take me home, country roads.”?
Hey! I have to say this is one of the best videos I have ever seen. But let's talk about plastics for a second. -Regular PLA glass transition temperature is very low around 60 deg C, but it can be annealed. After annealing (or the "heat treatment process") it will increase the glass transition temperature to about 160 deg C ( but it will cause some shrinkage to your part). -ABS glass transition temperature is around 100 deg C. -Poly(carbonate) aka PC glass transition temperature is around 145 deg C. (As far as I know PC is the material with the highest transition temperature). All the other "exotic" material will maybe have some better mechanical characteristics but will go to their glass transition temperature at very similar temperatures. I don't really know how the engine connects to the part the was melted but I think you should do a test with a motor and check the temp that shell of the motor gets, then you can see if 3d printing is even a valid way for manufacturing those parts.
This is one time I’m actually satisfied with Google’s tracking. Last night I watched motherboard’s video, not even thinking to check if you had a channel, and I’m extremely happy this video was on my front page today. Great stuff!
I'd be thinking long and hard about titanium for the thrust vectoring mount. Not only very light and strong for its given volume, components can be made very thin while still enduring extreme temperatures, further reducing overall weight.
I love the professional commentary. The first video I saw he kind of had a dream but was not quite certain about nailing it, but this one shocked me ' he sounds like he knows exactly what he is doing'
Just watched the motherboard video on you. Have to say this is super awesome and I think what you guys are doing is something super important as well as fun.
Crazy how Elon tells sentences that stays in the common language... Why is that? I mean, your comment is excellent, and at least 8 people know where this sentences comes from... I think this is quiet impressiv how just a little interview sentence can stay in our heads and imagination... This keeps me thinking...
😂😂 the boop tho...it was like watching space x bloopers lol .. also...I'm so jealous...that's like the best toy ever lol...what do you do outside model rocketry
I would personally use aluminum, 309/310 stainless or bakelite. Bakelite would be interesting, as it can handle around 300F continuously and higher for shorter periods of time. It cannot melt, and instead chars and degrades (flakes and cracks) if overheated. If made with carbon fiber or fiberglass instead of sawdust for filler, it could be REALLY strong and temperature resistant, while being cheaply moldable and mass producable.
Why not add a bigger rocket to get to like 500ft? Instead of spinning the solid state rocket motor to control the direction of the rocket, you could create a cone at the bottom of the rocket that swivels to direct it. This would allow you to add much more powerful rocket motors.
Annealing is a no-no since you still want dimensional accuracy. You may want to go fancy and still keep the capacity of 3D printing your design by using PEEK material. One downside is the density is higher than PLA (1,32 from memory). I know for a fact that E3D online is about to put some specialized parts for high-temperature printing on the market. I'm pretty sure they'll be happy to sponsor you with those parts (high-temperature bed and special nozzle and heater). What you achieved is pretty rad and they are very engineering oriented as well. Try to reach out Sanjay Mortimer... Good luck.
Annealing should be possible once you know how the part reacts. MIM parts shrink a lot during their processing, it is compensated for. Even injection molded plastics can change over time, like over months even.
1. Videos look good, but I'd love to see (hear) a better way to record slow mo audio. Don't know if that's a thing. 2. PLA was bound to melt with black powder! Haha. You can get CF infused filaments, but you might have to look into PETG or ABS. Depends, it would only add about 50ºC resistance vs PLA. Next best way would be find a machine shop with CNC capability for aluminum. If you can source black powder fuel, you can find a machine shop. lol 3. Given the colour and detail (and how you seem to usually launch around dusk) it would be incredible to see some 4K footage, it might up your production value to shoot some 4K/4K60 (perhaps rent a camera for your launches) even if you don't publish in 4K. You can punch in, the noise and sharpness will be much better, considering how much analysis you do of the footage. 4. Haha.... boop.
Was gonna mention using PETG or just getting the mounts CNCed, good tip. To be honest I think if PLA is holding up this well than PETG will be more than enough.
Recording audio of slo-mo almost always renders poor results, when you see slow motion in movies or TV or whatnot they add all the sound in post with foley.
Carbon fiber infused nylon is has a pretty high melting point but you could also use flame resistant polycarbonate, very expensive though. Awesome video!! You got yourself a sub
Damn, I want to build something like this myself one day. I want to start studying aerospace engineering next year, but I imagine figuring out some equations and mechanisms yourself is a lot of fun too. Awesome work, Joe!

I love the professional commentary. The first video I saw he kind of had a dream but was not quite certain about nailing it, but this one shocked me ' he sounds like he knows exactly what he is doing'
Just watched the motherboard video on you. Have to say this is super awesome and I think what you guys are doing is something super important as well as fun.
Can’t wait to see the launch where the boosters finally land!
It's so good it looks fake.
Crazy how Elon tells sentences that stays in the common language... Why is that? I mean, your comment is excellent, and at least 8 people know where this sentences comes from... I think this is quiet impressiv how just a little interview sentence can stay in our heads and imagination... This keeps me thinking...
Very nice info about the rocket and its improvements.
Congratulations, you earned a subscriber!
Love love love this! Found you through Tom Stanton. Amazing work. Subscribed and very keen to see more. Thank you.
Same here!
Elon Musk is going to hire his clone someday
I guess investors want him to take over SpaceX because he can f***ing talk
@@wullebulle123 i mean elon musks actions speak for him
😂😂 the boop tho...it was like watching space x bloopers lol
.. also...I'm so jealous...that's like the best toy ever lol...what do you do outside model rocketry
He's a berklee educated music dude.
Vice brought me here! Your work is amazing, can't wait to see you finally land!
This channel is my new best friend. As a kid I loved the Estes rockets but his is at a whole new level.
This dude looks like a younger Elon Musk too
First reason: it's cool! 2nd reason: I want a job at SpaceX. :D
I don't understand how this video doesn't have one million views yet!
Awesome Joe!!!
Why don't you size the pla tube up and insert a small, fireproofed cardbord tube to isolate the mount from the heat?
I would personally use aluminum, 309/310 stainless or bakelite. Bakelite would be interesting, as it can handle around 300F continuously and higher for shorter periods of time. It cannot melt, and instead chars and degrades (flakes and cracks) if overheated. If made with carbon fiber or fiberglass instead of sawdust for filler, it could be REALLY strong and temperature resistant, while being cheaply moldable and mass producable.
YES AFTER ALL THESE MONTHS
Really impressive, great work!
Amazing work!!
I'm gonna do my videos with a pen in my hand. It makes you look smarter... 🤔
Dude it’s a joke
dont criticize what he is doing is amazing
I would argue that the rocket at the back makes him look plenty smart enough.
No shit
Glorified model rocket? I think not! That is a technological marvel - very impressive indeed. Remember people - this IS rocket science!
Lmao its the fakes stupid shit ever.
I like how you stuck a Roadster inside as well, haha. Best model launch I've ever saw, congrats and good luck in the future!
Man! You're SICK! THIS IS GREAT!!
Why not add a bigger rocket to get to like 500ft? Instead of spinning the solid state rocket motor to control the direction of the rocket, you could create a cone at the bottom of the rocket that swivels to direct it. This would allow you to add much more powerful rocket motors.
Annealing is a no-no since you still want dimensional accuracy. You may want to go fancy and still keep the capacity of 3D printing your design by using PEEK material. One downside is the density is higher than PLA (1,32 from memory). I know for a fact that E3D online is about to put some specialized parts for high-temperature printing on the market. I'm pretty sure they'll be happy to sponsor you with those parts (high-temperature bed and special nozzle and heater). What you achieved is pretty rad and they are very engineering oriented as well. Try to reach out Sanjay Mortimer... Good luck.
Annealing should be possible once you know how the part reacts. MIM parts shrink a lot during their processing, it is compensated for. Even injection molded plastics can change over time, like over months even.
Dude you deserved more subscribers! Your channel content is good.
Outstanding job
But is there a starman in the roadster?

Great Job ! Really awesome Model !
Hi Joe, First time viewer. Combing everyday devices to simulate what a billion dollar company does is truly remarkable! You have a wonderful ability!
1. Videos look good, but I'd love to see (hear) a better way to record slow mo audio. Don't know if that's a thing.
2. PLA was bound to melt with black powder! Haha. You can get CF infused filaments, but you might have to look into PETG or ABS. Depends, it would only add about 50ºC resistance vs PLA. Next best way would be find a machine shop with CNC capability for aluminum. If you can source black powder fuel, you can find a machine shop. lol
3. Given the colour and detail (and how you seem to usually launch around dusk) it would be incredible to see some 4K footage, it might up your production value to shoot some 4K/4K60 (perhaps rent a camera for your launches) even if you don't publish in 4K. You can punch in, the noise and sharpness will be much better, considering how much analysis you do of the footage.
4. Haha.... boop.
Was gonna mention using PETG or just getting the mounts CNCed, good tip. To be honest I think if PLA is holding up this well than PETG will be more than enough.
Recording audio of slo-mo almost always renders poor results, when you see slow motion in movies or TV or whatnot they add all the sound in post with foley.
About 2.: maybe you could add a solenoid that puches the motor down into the position of the first motor.
@@toboterxp8155 unnecessary, only problem is overheating of the mount.
Carbon fiber infused nylon is has a pretty high melting point but you could also use flame resistant polycarbonate, very expensive though. Awesome video!! You got yourself a sub
You are the ELON MUSK of the people. Outstanding work.
Damn, I want to build something like this myself one day. I want to start studying aerospace engineering next year, but I imagine figuring out some equations and mechanisms yourself is a lot of fun too. Awesome work, Joe!
That's amazing man. Keep it up.
