Sounds like the rocket yells "WEEEEEEEE!" every time you launch it.
one happy rocket. Be like the rocket. :)
I love the sound it makes. It's so cute!
Sounds like a long noooooo to me.🙂
The start sounds like R2D2
yea ı think the same thing lol
"The parachute worked most if the times, apart from obviously the last time"
I think that can be said about most parachutes in the end
as a former 82nd, member that has had a hard landing too. I thought the parachute should have been a little larger. It didn't slow down the fall very much.
Kinda like when you find something that you lost? It's ALWAYS in the last place you looked?
@@markthompson4885 I guess you would have liked a larger parachute too
@@markthompson4885 probably tested to be the best it can be considering weight?
Emphasis on “in the end”.
The rocket is actually silent. That sound is Tom saying “Wheeeeeeeeee!” Whenever he launches.
hahaha man nice
The pig in the Geico commercial 😎
The intro is basically Kerbal Space Program when you forget to Put your parachute to something else other than the first stage and you cause the rocket to crash
He didn't check the staging.
@@superposition2644 ya
Rookie mistake smh
Thank goodness my vital career mode mission didn't go as bad as his intro.
spot on. _100%_ correct dude
Am I the only one who finds the little 'Vvvvvwhoooooooo' noise it makes on take off adorable?
It's like the rocket is an excited puppy ready to finally fly.
More like a "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
Hehe I was thinking
th-cam.com/video/B6mh45mA_JY/w-d-xo.html
Wooooooooooooooo
Plaaaaasseeeeeeeee let me go 😂
More like a cartoon character i think
That intro was totally a Kerbal Space Program launch. Messed up staging, summoned the rage of the kraken by having something spinning too fast, and just a short, disappointed “oh” at the self destruction. Now all you have to do is revert to vehicle assembly and you’ll be good to go.
Some printed Kerbals with little parachutes who deploy when the main chute does would be ideal.
As scott manley would say, Check Yo' Stagin :)

lol. i'm just building a pod racer in my sandbox save.
in ksp if you find brute force isn't working you are clearly not using enough and should add boosters.
It is called unplaned rapid disassembly. And yea supercaps are super useful stuff.
I know this project is 20 months old already (this is the first time I've seen it) but I just wanted to mention that the torque reaction from the spinning prop and motor seem to give the craft some yaw stability issues. I wonder if canting the fins slightly in the opposite direction wouldn't help counteract that effect, at least once it gets up to speed.
That was going to be my suggestion too. It's the easiest option. More lift would be generated too.
@@rcookro wha? pls explain...
Or put there 2 counterrotating EDFs instead of prop, would look like wingless A10 :)
Typically counter-rotating props are used for coaxial helicopters. Lots of kids toys are made that way.
Engineer type here, for your next upgrade use liquid electrical tape on the ESC wire connector pads, then use common electrical tape to waterproof your ESC, this will eliminate the chance of shorting your ESC if it gets wet from grass or condensation. Look into a counter rotating motor, it has TWO props that spin opposite of each other. When you scale this up (which who wouldn't!) you'll find that the torque generated by a single prop will start to rotate the rocket which is wasted energy after a certain amount of rotation (some rotation aids in stability, past that it's wasted). This was VERY entertaining! Thanks for making this and having the brains to give it a go!

The sound the rocket makes when it launches inexplicably fills me with joy.

Yeah.It almost sounds cartoonish.
I wonder how it says it's in space. I mean I've heard robots talk about it before. If it says 'SPAAAAAACE' before it realises its starting to fall, what would it sound like in the lower atmosphere?
Yeah, I was gonna say V2's launch was adorable :P

Really appreciate your enthusiasm and ingenuity.
Every time it launches all I can hear is the motor going weeeeeeeeeee!
It sounds like it says noooooo or woooooo
It's kinda qute though
Sounds human!
it is happy but would be happier with a camera built into the rocket.
I thought it was Tom. LOL
The take off sound is great. Feeeeewwwww!
I was about to comment this, I love it! haha
yep, sound is so cute
Heard like ol' days Angry Birds
I was about comment the same😅.. it sounds like a cartoon going.."fweeeeeeeeeeee"
The rocket is liek "pppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwww" and it's gone! Brilliant, love it
Brilliant! Excellent engineering. The best part is how fast you can recharge and launch again. Nice job.

Such a cute sound!
i love how in the intro it goes "wooo" before rapidly dissembling itself
TBH I would have just thought of it as motor noise, as I fly RC all the time, but now I've read your comment I imagine the rocket shouting "wooooo" on every launch and it makes an already good video about 6x funnier. :D

Your videos are the bomb! There is not one I have not totally enjoyed. Your skill set and knowledge are absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work.
Nice one again Tom! And I do admire your obvious enthusiasm!
Use contra-rotating props, so energy isn't lost to the rotation of the "rocket" body and for stability. Notice the twisting and resulting failure of the rocket during and shortly after takeoff in the first trial. Contra-rotating props would eliminate that problem and allow for maximum thrust without twisting/failure. (Edit: Autocorrect typo fixed)
not easy, especially since he's using a brushless outrunner
@@BrianSu should've used TWO smaller motors
Ironically, saw a book that had a similar rocket design from the 60s/70s (though using good old rubber bands as the propulsion) They solved the problem of requiring counter-rotation by having stationary blades of equal size to the moving blades underneath. It may also be useful to have a larger or multi-blade propeller so as to maximise the downward thrust efficiency
@@BrianSu there are pre-made brushless motors designed to operate contra-rotating props. I've used them a couple times on R/C projects.

@@bethelgues3918 only nickle cadmium batteries have charge memory
@@maxxiang8746 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23584142
All known batteries have some form of memory effect that is with battery cycling (charging and depletion). Some batteries are better than others. For example Aluminum Oxide batteries tend to have really bad charge memory effects.
NiCd batteries are just more well known because of their extensive use and more pronounced memory effect. Lithium ion or NiMH have much longer life, but they eventually do experience voltage drops or a lowering of charge capacity.
On the flipside capacitors don't have any chemical reactions, and as a result they do not experience these loses or buildup of inert nonreactive salts... no matter how much they are charged/discharged.
Next Project: Super Capacitor eBike!
Yes, it might get complex but it is what Tom generally would like to get involved in. I really wish Tom at least discuss the challenges involved in this project.
This could actually be a great idea. If he fits the bike with a dynamo that can charge the super capacitors.
Could have a turbo button on the bike that uses the capacitors....
Judging from how noticably harder you need to pedal for just a single light i think regenerative breaking isn't really going to work.
A turbo button on the other hand would be a good idea, this way you could get away with a smaller battery if you just want to use it occasionally. With recharging time fore the caps it would probably be a lot like the nitro button from need for speed.
The energy per unit volume of a supercap is not good enough for a bike that is much use. You want more than 10 seconds of run time.
Been watching your videos for a few days now, this got an instant thumbs up and sub in the first 5 seconds. The sudden dismantling and resulting "Oh" ... Yup, you are my kind of person! Also love the content, might not understand everything, but I'm learning a lot from what I can

Seriously though, great video. Super caps are amazing and I'm going to try to involve them in my next experiments!
The sound it makes is just awesome!
When charging high power capacitors, especially with a lithium battery pack, I would highly recommend using an appropriately sized current limiting resistor. The initial peak current will be incredibly high as you're essentially shorting the battery. That's not good for the battery, and not good for whatever switch or plug you are using.
Well, he said he didn't recommend it.

That noise is too precious!!
Years ago I heard someone say that a 1F capacitor was impossible or largely impractical ... time changes way too fast :-)
I mean i guess before super caps that does not sound like an insane statement but for car audio they definitely had up to 5F capacitors probably bigger for a while and also i mean i heard of super capacitors like 5 years ago or so
James Holbrook They exist since 60s, just were too expensive back then. Also they were vastly improved over time, first supercaps were really big. Like 12v 6F was about the size of a hockey puck. Now it's about the size of 2 2032 cells.
Alexandre Salau There are super Capacitor one the market with few thousand Farads. I found also a better 3V Capacitor with approximately same size like he used in this Video: m.reichelt.com/ch/en/supercapacitor-100f-3v-22x45mm-hy-cap-100f-3v-p195670.html?&trstct=pos_10&nbc=1
It is not too fast. Before supercapacitor 1F was really big size. But it is already 50-100 years so. So it is normal that they find something new after 100 year of research.
I remember playing with 1 Farad 14.4volt caps in the mid '90's when I got into car stereo's and Subs. 1st rig 1200W 4x50w and 1KW Sub's. used to use a light bulb to charge that massive cap after lots of scary moments.
Use a folding propeller like RC gliders have so it closes naturally before impact.
"You can...."
It might close "before impact" or if falling too slowly just close on impact...
WHY would a glider have a propellor?

I had been wondering a lot if supercaps could replace / augment batteries for short term start-up current loads from intermittently run brushless motors and whether that would be an easy or prohibitively hard thing to do for a current project I'm working on. Thanks for showing me it's definitely a very strong option -- you've got a new subscriber! Love all your projects.

I'd like to see this with counter rotating props, Well done Tom.
To limit damage to the prop, maybe look into a folding prop, like the ones used on rc motor gliders?
He just needs good ol’ tri-blade race props. Smack into a tree at 80mph, slightly bend back one of your prop blades, and go hammering it through the trees again on your race mini quads! The old props seemed to be more brittle than icicles and would break on almost anything even 5 mph epic slow airplane crashes or slight bumps. Modern props use better materials with plastics that are more rigid (holding aerodynamic shape and efficiency at high power), as well as taking a beating and allowing more than hairline flexing. Plus they seem to bend back about 20 times, whereas the old ones had a fatigue limit of seemingly 1 crash, and maybe it would be sorta flyable at low throttle and vibrating, or maybe the props would explode...
It’s a good thing we have modern props, because I crash a lot! So much better than the old ones.... they do need to become more available in the 9-12 inch size though, those all seem to be old school materials (besides carbon, but those just aren’t as cheap to crash like I do)
@@jakegarrett8109 Maybe a bigger parachute would be enough to save the props.
Or attach parachute above center of gravity instead below (while still storing it in the base)
Or the prop saver with an o-ring to hold it on
Keep the deployment chamber in the bottom but have the parachute attached to the top.
I wish you wouldve talked a little more about how current and voltage interact with eachother while a capacitor is discharging. Great vid!
That was fun to watch, well done, I learnt something new about super capacitors 👍🏼☺️
You know what this successful test means? It means that you now have to scale it up. By a LOT! 😀
Hundreds of capacitors...
Now, here to find a 10000f capacitor.... or 6 of them
And now it explodes
“Oh.”
Then...
WEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I think this is better than the standard model rockets, at least for smaller areas.
Good job, and good instruction, mate.
Watching you work problems is very inspiring
Yknow, you could use a solenoid to automatically fire the parachute below a certain voltage
Smart
No. He knew that there were going to be plenty of situations where he wanted to deploy when he hadn't expended most of the capacitor's power. A manual deployment gave him the ability to abort the flight when *he* wanted.
@@jlstanley He could do both. (have a manual switch and a solenoid that automatically activates below a certain voltage)
But as you can see in the video the rocket turns sideways, and there's a good chance it would be back on the ground long before the parachute fires

I found its always best to wear tall waterproof workbooks while I take out any of my Rc's. Good traction& keeps your feet dry. Can save your feet,legs,ankles from a ground rc running into you as well.
you can get more out of the caps by putting them in parrallel and useing a switching boost up converter. Putting caps in series devides the total capacitance.

What if...?? Two counter rotating props and multiple-stage booster capacitors that drop-off as they discharge their energy. Could go really high with a small payload of say, a plastic space man.

Very nice job, thanks for making me think, I am now considering building a slow stick RC plane powered by super capacitors, keep up the good work
Well before there were supercapacitors there were explosive electrolytics. My career at Hughes Aircraft began in 1964. In the first laboratory in which I was assigned to do some thermal testing, a time consuming process as the oven comes up to temperature, I had the opportunity to gaze up at the ceiling tiles. There I saw the remaining aluminium casings of what had been a couple of large electrolytic power supply filter capacitors. They were firmly embedded into the acoustic fiber tiles. I asked the older technicians how that had happened. He said the polarity had been reversed on the output after the high voltage, vacuum tube(valve) power supply had been shut down.
To this day I wonder how high those cans might have gone had it occurred in an open field like you used.
Very cool =]

So many companies have done less and made millions then went to research more toys. Airhogs, cool company.

Congrats on the success of your missile! You've had some interesting projects. I have enjoyed watching your imagination and problem-solving ability at work.
I’d like to see the rocket unfold a pair of wings and turn into a glider at the apex for a smoooooth landing.
Can be done with a gravity assisted system, a large ball bearing that when rolled and rocket is pointed down, it release two wings held in place at bottom of rocket by ball bearing and when it moves forward slides past the sprig trigger holding wings in
Meh
Yo get the idea
I just got to 9 mins in on video, so replace ball bearing and spring mech with gyro switch that releases folded wings to glide but then you got to design a glider type body with lift and aerodynamics or its just a stick with wings
Peace and Blessings
Morgenstund like a space shuttle
has been done. search for flitetest free flight. They used a real rocket tho
I'm impressed! Looked like a heavy build, but still took off like a, eh, rocket.
Unlike batteries, capacitors take on whatever voltage is applied to them (or explode), and loads of energy (especially these super caps), so can be lethal. Viewers should be warned!
When i was a kid, i used some capacitors with small broken bulb to ignite powder in petard. That was mounted on rocket models, and i started them horizontal into walls. That was quite fun. Like a rockets on military planes/heli. They ditonated when smashed into the walls
the rocket makes the absolute cutest noise omg
