New rocket engine engineering design
Back in the day, I would use baby powder on the plastic chutes to break any tension. Also adds a puff during deployment that can be seen.
I do the same!
That's not a real flying saucer because it uses rocket power. A real flying saucer works off anti gravity propulsion. Get real!!!🛸
Very helpful lecture sir pls make videos like these it helped me alot to learn
Thanks for the tips, great ideas and information!
I've had good luck with Discount Rocketry (if they have what you want), Sirius Rocketry, Chris Rocketry, and Performance Rocketry.
I was thinking about getting into rockets again because the FAA is giving RC pilots such a hard time with a 400 foot max altitude limit.. Might as well just fly unguided rockets through the same airspace without threats of poverty and violence.
@@GunsNGloryShow We rocketeers got it pretty good.
@@TheRocketN00b Yes we do. About to put a couple on my airplane. I used to shoot these all the time when I was a kid. I had a gravel pit for a backyard and dad knew the owners so I had about 80 acres to grow up on and half of it was cleared. Great place for rockets and planes. Favorite was the Phoenix running E engines. Put it out of sight 3 times and got it back. I used to attach a small delta dart styrofoam glider which would release at apogee. Never saw any of those again.
When I was 14 or so, Estes decided to replace their decals with bumper stickers. I called Estes to complain, saying that until they went back to decals I would not buy another of their rockets. I'm 49 and haven;t bought one since. EDIT. I just contacted Estes, and told them what I said above and asked if they yet had any plans on correcting their error.
@@GunsNGloryShow I'm not sure what you mean. There are plenty of Estes kits with waterslide decals. The kits with stickers is the exception, mostly for beginners' kits. Estes has gone through a lot of ownership changes over the years. Sounds like the bumper sticker era was one of the bad ones.
@@TheRocketN00b That's not what they told me on the phone 30 some years ago, and I haven't bought a rocket since. She told me specifically that Estes had no plans on going back to decals because it raised the prices of their kits. I never went back.
Make sure the turbo encabulator is connected perpendicular to the linear actuator, otherwise this can mess up the kalman filter
@@Liam-abc Obviously.
Pls don't stop uploading. Love your content ❤😅
Well…. 😂. That was weird!
@@KevinsModels Yep. I saw him later and thought he was just jogging.
Thank you very much for the video. I started with OpenRocket 2 months ago. It's a pretty good rocket design tool. Your Astra Javelin is beautiful 🙂
Thanks!
The haz mat on low power was supposed to go away. A - G

Good content. Keep it up man!
Great channel...i am gonna be active here. I just love rockets ❤ thanks.
Last time I tried to order from Estes they would not sell to Canada.
Yeah, unfortunately, they don't ship outside the US, so people have to find a seller that imports their stuff.
Most of my stuff comes from Hobby Wholesale in Edmonton.
Hello which launch controller are u using thanks for answering
This was a club launch, so I used the club's launch control system, which is pretty powerful. But the Estes Pro Series Launch Controller is great for clusters, especially if you hook up a LiPo battery to it. I've got one, and I love it. If you want to check it out, here's an affiliate link. estesrockets.com//discount/AWA10?redirect=/products/pro-series-ii-launch-controller?aff=34
5:05 never cook again 🔥🔥
Okie dokie.
What if you don’t have a loop on the nose cone
Then you'll need some kind of attachment point for the shock cord and parachute. You could use a screw eye, or you can attach a loop of Kevlar line. With a plastic nose cone, for example, you can drill a couple of holes in the base of the cone, pass a bit of line through, and then tie it into a loop. But in order to safely recover all parts of your rocket, you'll need some way to keep the nose cone attached to the body of the rocket.
So I'm gonna try, with this many rocket scientists in one place....my first rocket as a kid, mid-late 70's, an black, all plastic, Estes rocket. Flew it alot til I broke a fin. 😢 Anyone remember that one, and what it was called?? 🙏
Sounds a bit like the Amazon, but I don't know how far back that one goes. You might try on The Rocketry Forum or one of the groups on FB, like the Estes Model Rockets group: facebook.com/groups/1078069588922549
What motor did you use and how much nose weight
Well, it wasn't my rocket, so I'm not sure. It sounds like an F15 or maybe E16 motor to me, from the burn time and low thrust. As for nose weight, I would guess he used the amount of clay weight supplied with the kit, but I can't be sure. I packed my Apollo Saturn V with extra nose weight when I built mine.
Thanks for including links in the description. Lots of companies I didn't know about and I'm going to bookmark and look over later.
One or two things changed since I made the video. At AC Supply, you'll see the discounted price only after you add an item to your shopping cart. They can't display the sale price on the item page, due to a rule change by Estes. Things are still discounted, though! And if you shop at the Estes website, I have a coupon code that'll save you 10% - just enter AWA10 at checkout.

Very cool, thanks for sharing and for the coupon code
I feel your pain! I feel the same way when I watch his videos. They are awesome though. I feel smarter just watching.
I think we still don't have a print version of the 2024 catalog, yet. I'm not quite sure how that happened?? Love that sticker - going on the range box? Going to Amesbury on Sunday? You can strut in your new tee!!!!
@@robcaswell5741 I'll be there!
My coupon code AWA10 will save you 10% when you purchase at Estes' website, or you can just click the link in the video description and 10% off will automatically be applied to your order at checkout!
Thats a great haul i wish i could use the afcailaite link bud sadly estes dont ship outside the US hopefully one day they will as i know for a fact they would do an amazing trade !! Mr langford if your reading this .. lots if business this side of the pond 😉
A dusting of baby powder on parachutes helps with any binding issues. Also adds a “poof” when it opens.
circular chess
😊😊👍👍
Use a pliers and bend the tab over on the clasp. Also, not for larger rockets.
