This was AWESOME on so many levels, I will show this video regularly in my high school engineering classes. FAILURE is critical to learning, so many of my students want super cool and want it fast and want it easy. This shows hours of hard work, creativity and SUCCESS after what must have been hours and hours of building and filming! Thank you for posting!
ham radio jim Hey thanks V1! We'll have you out for the next one if possible; lots of lost footage opportunities from only having two of us on this shoot.
Very creative! Fun to watch. When I built my Estes Mercury Redstone, the tube was cardboard and all the other parts-nose cone, fins, escape tower-were all built from wood glued together with Elmer's. The tower especially was fun to assemble. Each individual rod had to be glued in place, and the nozzles were small pieces of paper rolled into a cone shape. I had many successful flights but I don't think a water landing would have been a good idea! LOL!
You should use a dual ignition system with redundancy to greatly decrease the likelihood of a unintended launch. For example, the igniter circuit would be broken until a radio command sets off a servo which would physically complete the connection. Only then would you give a second signal to launch.
Thet's great stuff... ! I have 2 incredible stories I'd like to share. 1) I was flying with the CRASH club out of Denver, they organised a "landing" event, bring a rocket lauch it, the one who lands the closest to the launch pad wins... Everyone had his special trick, we talked about it for a week, the day of the event we were about 30 trying for glory, the 8 rod pad was loaded, first to go, a dad and his son on pad one. 3...2...1...launch ! The ship goes up arcs into the wind, deploys his Estes chute and floats back... to hang on the rod it just took of from... Imposible to best that ! We all shot anyway and nobody got within 20 ft of the pad... 2) Same rules but for duration, bring anything you want, the longest flight wins, but the judges have to be able to see the ship land... It was cold, and there was snow on the ground. The night before I hurriedly put thogether an Alpha III with a chute made from a trashbag, 2 times bigger than the original. Next day I was there just to participate, I could not win against all those "specials" the experts had build. My trun comes, up he goes into the wind, deploys... nice black round chute... is comming in... then, about 100 ft up it stops descending, it passes in front of us and continues down wind climbig ! It climbs 10-15 ft then descends then repeats... 3 of us took off after on foot, after crossing to wire fences we lost sight, It never landed ! I never found it ! Later on an engineer explained : "You got so lucky, the wind, temperature and chute size were right... the sun heated the air under the black chute and created lift, it was enought to lose your ship..." well I lost anyway...
If you have an extra channel on your radio, maybe connect that channel to a normally open relay in the firing circuit, so no signal can make it to the ignitor plug before intended
Bonjour, A new great video that higlights another side of our passion for RC modelism, the technical applications. After a sinking and lighting Titanic, a rocket ! Well, let me suggest you a new challenge as I have seen steam boats in slow motion, what could you invent with steam :+) ? Amicalement, Raphaël
Hello! I have seen every single video of yours on the titanic, and I've been thinking. I have a video suggestion! Maybe you could make a few tiny RC submarines from the movie to go back to the wreck of YOUR Titanic that you sank. The one that split in half. I'm sure you've probably installed something to bring the ship back up, but if you haven't, maybe you should do this! I love your videos, too!
I COMPLETELY FORGOT THAT YOU ARE MR MOBILE. I've been subscribed to this channel for years and totally forgot that. Or maybe its more i forgot Mr Mobile is Rapidnadion haha
Last answered comment: Two months ago. Are you guys still working on a project? As many other comments here show, that would definetly be cool. Also, I sincerely hope you all are alright, in general and in view of the curren Corrona crisis.
HB we thank you for your interest in our video projects; we have many ideas but have not acted on them for a while, you're right.. Don't give up on us , after this 'interference' blows over we expect to be producing again.
@@Rapidnadion That is really cool to hear! I'll be waiting. You've been a huge inspiration for me for many years now... who knows, some day I might build my own large aircraft carrier...
Super, super video! Many congratulations. Maybe you can help me: I'm loking for a barge for my rc tug boat. I found some 3d file for printing it, but the problem is the bollard height, too short. Can you suggest me where can I get a good one? Thanks a lot!
Sweet project and great videos! Time to either convert those radios to 2.4 Ghz or outright replace them. Maybe use a second Channel as a fail safe (both have to be activated for the launch to work). Love the idea of the water launch though!
When we'll we see giant CV-63 and her air wing operating again? It would be so cool to see drones (DJI Spark and/or Mavic series) operating from her deck)
thanks, want to put estes on an rc plane, the trigger may need some thought and testing. could you do a vid on your wiring ( or explain it here) thanks. Bet that second launch woke you up :-)
Andres, we are pretty thorough about priming and painting the rockets' internals during construction as well as the outside. Even so, eventually the water does saturate the cardboard after several burns. Thanks for watching!
You need to be using a digital radio with S.Bus receivers and digital servo signal, then you can forget interference. Like FRSky or the cheaper FlySky. Even Futaba. But even the analogue servo signal would be locked down to your radio with those brands. Up to 2km distances on 2.4GHZ band.
Can you do a tutorial on liquid fueled rockets or something because I’m having problems with my alcohol hydrogen peroxide rocket, (the pressure isn’t forcing the fuel to the combustion chamber, I’m using helium to do that)
Neat video, but did you ever determine the source of the interference? What band of radio are you using? There "shouldn't" be enough interference, especially with your proximity, to cause misfires with your system.
The launch rod and blast area tray were making intermittent contact as the rocket moved around on the barge in the chop. This problem was masked aboard the ‘mother ship’ as there was hardly any motion on the barge at that point. A short piece of silicon fuel tubing slid over the bottom of the rod isolated the 2 interference producers.
Not to worry even Space X has had its fair share of failed flights, nice video thanks for sharing.

Wow! Very nice rocket and tests! Even from failures or thank to them we learn and improve. I like the look and feel of the rocket, the launchpad and the support ship. But also that you try the RF launch system. Probably you need some other short of RF system, simpler in commands but more reliable, with maybe another not very used RF band, or encoding some sort of message. There are online several projects like that for arduino systems. Anyway great job, I had a great time seeing the video, and I'm sure you too building and flying the rocket. Thanks! for sharing! BTW, how did you build the rocket, 3D printing?
@rapidnadion, hi I need your help, I want to build an RC speed yacht for a contest, but I don’t know how to build an RC boat hull. Great video by the way!
As long as your in the water. Refit for D engine and run a bigger. Parachute then you have time to get under it so she don.t get wet. And thats a great Idea fly in water. Hum me wheels are turning. I got a thought about a Night flight rocket but it heavy. And its gonna need a hell of a motor

We thank you, Doug; glad to be able to help provide some entertainment through learning for your students.
Rapidnadion are you guys still like a thing? Why haven’t you uploaded
@@railsofthenorthland1181 they never upload often, just when they have something to show.
Try bps space!
This is an outstanding project. Love the planning of events and prep......
Gone but not forgotten
Just a suggestion for radio-controlled launching use two channels one channel with a Servo to arm it physically and the second channel to fire
or just use a servo to press a firing button
I loved your videos and channels so much. It’s great to see y’all back again
U dont upload very often but when u upload the videos are so cool and epic
What happened to you guys you’ve not uploaded in over a year
He uploaded rn
No budget, needs government to add extra 0s.
Aaaah, rockets!
Back to your roots...way to go, guys.
A wonderful, honest, and fun video.
Congrats from VidOne!!
ham radio jim Hey thanks V1! We'll have you out for the next one if possible; lots of lost footage opportunities from only having two of us on this shoot.
I used to watch you as a kid glad to see your still around.
Pls come back or are you working on a project
he has a other youtube that is very active, the name is "MrMobile".

2:20 I know I shouldn't laugh but this is why we always assume the round is about to go live. Thanks for sharing!
Finally I see something new in your channel. Love your videos, keep uploading more videos, I wanna see new adventures of the fleet, CV 63, and DD 702

Always brings a smile to my face when I see a Rapidnadion video show up on my page
Hey weapon Navy and keep up on the seaQuest good job how do you video on the Kitty Hawk
Awesome! Even just your 2nd missfire was about the coolest RC event video I've ever seen!
Glad to see more from you guys! Love your videos!
Beautiful Redstone rocket! Looks great with the clear waters in the background :)
It has been a while, it’s nice to seem the creativity come back.
Hey guys! Long time! Missed your projects.
This is one of the coolest channels in the world
YES!!!!!!!!!!!! RapidNadion is back :D Where's the carrier???? :D
nice to see this channel back in action! The first video I seen by y'all was the "Titanic Break-up" how to, video!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing...I wonder if attained altitude is impacted at all by the water under the pad
Great to see you active again!:) love it
What a couple of big boys...I LOVE IT. Good video.
When you don't have SpaceX budget lol
Btw great setup & rockets
Greetings from france ❤️
Whatever happened to the submarine....that was such a thrill to watch...plz make more videos of it
That is an AMAZING model of the redstone rocket used for the first Mercury missions.

Good to see you guys back at it!
Great video. Exceptional work. My son loves this.
Always a joy to watch. Have fun
Hilarious! My father and I did something similar in 1980 on a lake in New York. Good times. Thanks for the memory recall.
HEY, it's the guy who reviewed the LG Stylo 3 years ago. Wow, very cool
Are you guys dead? It’s been 2 years since your last upload. Still waiting for part 3 and 4 of the Seaquest build.
That's very funny! XD
If y’all are making something make the Britannic sinking that would be cool
dude you deserve 100K subs like for real!
Too COOL!!!!!! BTW, looks like Florida, maybe the Indian River Lagoon???
You guys rock^^ next Elon Musk?^^ haha
now i'm just picturing spaceX rockets spontaneously launching as they're being brought out to the launch pad
nah that would be bps space
@@samc4531 just shut up kid these short tiny people will never be comparable with legendary Elon Mask 😂
@@lucaspeng5063 you're the imposter

Such a cool idea launching from the sea
What a view
please make more videos these were so cool when i was a kid and still are

Very cool. Reminds me of opening credits of "I Dream of Jeannie".
I made a radio control launchpad 20 years ago ,it was setup to launch 3 rockets side by side 1 at a time ,it worked perfectly!!!
Next gen of flitetest

A steam turbine ship perhaps?
A scratch-built turbine is definitely on the list of future propulsion ideas.
Too cool guys. I love my Freedom 7 rocket as well.
Awesome! Good to see you guys again having fun! 👍

Good ideas; thanks!
Cooler than ever!!!
Can you post an update on what is currently in progress?
More wireless and or timer safety interlocks to mitigate accidental launch?
Not Bad at all, Congrats !!!
Where did you buy the battleship? I can never find a good one
Are you coming back?
Yes, we are.
Cool! Next challenge: launch from UNDER water!
When we'll we see giant CV-63 and her air wing operating again? It would be so cool to see drones (DJI Spark and/or Mavic series) operating from her deck)
Hey Rapidnadion when is your next video coming out and when is it
lovely creativity
Great work! Can you guys make sampson The destroyer?
thanks, want to put estes on an rc plane, the trigger may need some thought and testing.

Bet that second launch woke you up :-)
How do your rockets fare after landing in water? Does the inside of the tube not get damaged by the water?

Francisco Domínguez Román Thanks for the comment! The rocket is actually a model kit from a company called Estes.
Rapidnadion ah OK! Thanks for commenting it. 😃👍🏻
How you build this rocket and what chemicals you used for thrusting the rocket....
Ayyy hes back
Was that a 72 mhz long lead radio ? Maybe time to update
Yey! A video!
1:350 scale Britannic model sinks and capsizes
what sort of rocket engines do i need to get into this model rocketry?
U have old fashioned 72 or 75 MHz radios, notorious for interference .. Try using Spektrum 2.4GHz .. they’re solid.
RF shielded ignition wires might be helpful.
Your alive!
what do you use to fire the fireworks?
Love your videos, but when can we expect more seaquest parts
Where do you get the brass propellers like the ones off your aircraft carrier, I’ve been looking for them but I can’t seem to find them.
Google: brass model boat propellers.
