I cant believe malcom got that rocket on that rail thats crazy u would never see that here in the states sure was fun to watch thanks for the video

[@porsupuest0]

Great vid! A bit of genuine reaction there, on my part when the rocket nearly fell off the pad! My language is usually much less colourful :-)

[@maxthrustrc]

I think you did a great job Russ organising the whole thing :)

[@RCHeliJet]

only Wow. That well be my next Passion RC Rockets.

[@MrBellda]

Nice launch, thanks for sharing.

[@hartrockets]

Another good video mate, like my boomerang flight shame it went a bit blurry in parts. See you at Big EARS

[@maxthrustrc]

hartrockets cheers bud! I'm thinking of using manual focus next time.

enjoyed that hi from rocket girl New Zealand :)

Curious about why you only go a certain height before cutting off.
Are there regulations prohibiting it?
I mean, I can understand not having unrestricted access depending on where you are because of aircraft, but still.

[@maxthrustrc]

We're quite heavily restricted with altitude in the UK due to the congested airspace.

[@Mike-yz5gy]

That's a real shame.
Are there any exceptions, for example, if you request permission to fly to higher altitudes?
Lastly, what is the altitude limit?

[@amelluk]

Bushcraft Mike Its not that bad. Default altitude limit at this site is 5K feet. Some other sites in the UK have a 10K feet limit.

[@Mike-yz5gy]

Ahh. Is that how high these were going? It didn't look very high!

[@KCM25NJL]

@David Parry LOL

[@scenesoflife4243]

Is this club still going?

[@SleepySack]

Yes, its still going :)

[@darthfly2]

Do you buy or are sent rockets

[@maxthrustrc]

Everything is paid for by my own hard cash.

[@dantyler1558]

More than once I saw the really long one kinked and bent on the ground.
That's what's called too long, too massive.

[@akhil9928]

I can only watch the video in 360p.

[@maxthrustrc]

It can take up to 2 hours for RUclips to process the video fully, especially 4K

You need to invest in a better launcher.
