As terrifying as missiles are. I gotta say there's something about them that appeals to the inner pyromaniacal 9 year old in me that loves their unpredictability.
@@Truckinstuff I believe it's because when you think of fireworks, you think of the ones seen in cartoons, those that usually look like missiles. So these have the look (and 50/50 the performance) of something from a cartoon.
Yep. I was thinking it wouldn't be that hard to tack a piece of straw to the side of one of these and use a length of 1/8th inch dowel or metal rod. Improvised launch system.
These "missiles" look similar to model rockets, and those use a launch rail to keep them going straight until they pick up enough speed for the fins to actually work.
The tiny rockets made me laugh. We don't like a few of our neighbors cause everytime we're having a good time they call the police. Anyway, the day after the 4th we lit a roman candle and our neighbor told us to "turn it off!" We confusedly looked at each other as if it had a switch 😂 we just went further up the road near some canyons so it would echo louder.
Dang, that Saturn Missile battery needed a fisheye lens to capture it all. Some sketchy stuff indeed: I've never personally encountered those types of rockets as fireworks.
I bought a slew of a brand-less rockets with lift charges and they were as impressive as a festival ball shell. They were buy one get five. I also had ones that were called “black widow” missiles and they were amazing too for the size.
This is quite interesting to me. Over here in Europe (I’m from Germany), it’s very unusual to see missiles with fins, most use a wooden stick for flight stability. From my experience that works much better plus you don’t have plastic everywhere. I was disappointed by most of the missiles effects in this video as over here it’s standard that they have a report and shell-like effect. It’s always interesting to watch your videos and compare US fireworks with the ones I know. Nice👍
@@Der_Kleine_Mann ja dir gibt's immer im Norma, aber sonst kenn nur noch die spider Raketen von lesli (richtig schlecht). Abgesehen davon sieht man so was hier gar nicht
I would rather have the regular rockets because the sound they make is half of the reason I buy the rockets and missiles. I love that sound for sure. And that had to be the best Saturn missile ever with the colors and just wow.
I wonder how they'd perform if you used something like a model rocket launch station (and, of course, attached something to the body of the firework rocket so that the takeoff is stabilized by the guide rod).
For all of my firework rockets I buy straws, cut them into one or two inch pieces, glue them to the sides of each rocket and put them on my model rocket launch pads. Everyone of them goes straight up.
I hope you know those launch rockets do have a small rocket after the lift deployment And that clay plug is the launch base launch tube That’s why it’s left on the ground right at the Launch site Also if you ever dissect a hand held parachute flare they also have a similar launch with a super powerful internal end burning rocket engine inside
The little Gemini's use to come packed carefully in a divider box, instead of tumble packaged. That was in the early 80's. The bigger rockets are modeled after the Estes Alpha dimensions, they just cranked a bunch of extra fin surface into them so they would have some sort of stability. They also did that before the 80's. You could get a 12" 4 fin rocket back then, just different packaging. Basically a good motor burn, then they would kick out a few stars. If they don't have a guide lug, they should be dropped into a big PVC pipe, mortar style. Otherwise, they could chase someone on ignition.
Cody... A suggestion for these rockets to keep them from.going sideways... Suggest using an Estes Rocket Launcher used for Model.Rockets. you can.use packing tape to tape a small piece of soda straw to the side of the firework rocket. This will work for all but the smallest and the ones that spin. The launch platform.gjide rod will help stabilize the rocket on takeoff. I think that will help with this type of firework. Good luck, keep it up. Love your channel!
I think on the rocket missile you took apart with the lifting charge the heavy clay plug below the lifting charge bag acts like a counter weight when the charge goes off
For an experiment buy a model rocket launcher, glue a 1-2 inch length of straw to the rockets and set them off from the launcher. I bet you would get far less strays.
Over the years I've had so many of them go sideways, now I tape a little piece of a straw to the side and use my Estes rocket launch pad slide the rocket down the rod, havnt had one go sideways since
I know those *lift charge* missiles LOOK sketchy, but honestly they're not a ripoff. I bought a pack of six lift charge missiles and once I launched them, I noticed that they are VERY accurate going up. Not one went a random direction; they all went straight up and high. So those missiles are VERY good choices if you are in a cramped space with your neighbors' land being like 100 yards away. I knew 100% that a real rocket missile would have flown straight into the woods or across a road.
I think the white clay may be a mixture of sugar and potassium nitrate. I could be wrong though... it is the substance that makes up the propellant of sugar rockets.
I believe the lift charge ones use the principle of you have to expell mass to propel something, the regular ones expell hot gas and the lift charge ones expell that plug out of the bottom causing the missile to fly upwards, could be wrong though🤷 Edit: okay hearing how they sound my theory has changed, I think the plug might act as a seal, Building pressure in the bottom tube causing it to shoot up.
Im usually disappointed with firework rockets. They can be expensive. They almost always are not stable and go flying off in some sideways direction. And the worst part is the breaks are usually very underwhelming, especially for the price. I know there are some good rockets but i dont have the money to buy 20 different types trying to find a decent one. This video really helped. Edit: and those 2 paper finned ones you were worried about actually flew way straighter than the rest.
I loved those finned rockets when I was a kid... right up there with the spinner propeller types! my faves! if it flew I wanted it! please do one on those spinner propellers! BTW I recall them having a guide rod hole on the side... guess not anymore?
I notice that when you do these, you always keep all the fireworks close together, right near where the lit ones are being launched. Isn't there a danger to igniting the others that are close by??
That’s pretty interesting with the ‘missiles that aren’t missiles’… it’s like a reverse tube. The firework is on the outside and the inert platform is on the inside. The cement/clay tube presses out of the bottom when the lift charge fires and gives the firework something to leverage itself on so it can launch. It looks like it essentially ‘presses’ it into the air. Pretty impressive to get distance on it like that still. It’s like holding on to the bullet while you fire the gun as the projectile. lol
I wonder if it would be worth while to adhere a short section of straw to the side of the missiles and use a model rocket guide wire to keep them straight during the initial launch phase. This would allow you to direct them to a specific area within reason.
True story, I hate that firework. One fourth I went to see my friend and we shot off a lot of fireworks. But the next day her husband told us to burn the cardboard trash from the fireworks. Will that missle firework did not completely fire and started to shoot us and her two young boys. I got hit a lot in the back as I tried to protect the boys and get into the house. With the backdoor locked I kept the boys in front of me and ran. The bruises and a small burn are what I got from that clean-up day. But I love your videos.
The last one of 680 shots should be made into 10 shot ones. That would be 68 10 shot volleys. That would give us a chance to see them properly instead of just a blur.
Those little tiny little bottle rockets are kind of not that fun but I haven’t tried them, so tell me how old they are and I’ll get them this Fourth of July
I have a question about the "spinny boys" with the canted fins and ring. What's that red plastic spike sticking down from where the nozzle would normally be??? Do you snap that off to reveal the fuse???
The expensive ones at phantom fireworks are good, but everything else is unpredictable and got permanently banned from the backyard fireworks show from all the moms
There's NEVER enough Saturn Missile Battery shots!👍😊👍 It's ASMR for pyros!😅
You can never go wrong with the Saturn Missiles.
Saturn missiles will never get old. A couple thousand....or ten...or hundred thousand 😅🤪😁😎
Damn right! Well said!
...love the missiles, hate the plastic though.🚀🎇😅
As terrifying as missiles are. I gotta say there's something about them that appeals to the inner pyromaniacal 9 year old in me that loves their unpredictability.
I have called them going in the neighbors backyard and they did just that but it was the opposite neighbors yard that I called 😂

You have watch too much WW2 historical segments on the Germans vs Russians.
There's a reason model rockets are launched with a guide rod. They have to get up to speed before they fly right.

Funny thing is, the Estes type of model rocket motors is based on firework rockets.
Happy deepavali bro love from India 💪💪♥️♥️👍👍
Amazing and beautiful fireworks! Best regards from Germany 🙂
30 gal. Graese barrel, 250 2 500 roles. Safe distance facing crowd(light×sound),Saturn missles. Take turns ligthing. Cheap N FUN Display! Bigger water barrel-troft 4 more reprocusin!
I remember buying some sketchy missiles one year. They’d launch about 2 feet before exploding. Good times
Cool video! Back in the day theu used to sell 4ft tall missiles that were all red with a black nose cone, can't find those anymore.
That was one of the nicest Saturn Batteries ive seen in a while.
Neat how they use that clay plug under the lift charge to shoot it up. Like a spring loaded plunger
6:07 it is not clay it is potasium nitrade
Red apple fire works demo plz

Even tho we can’t shoot off rockets where we live, it’s still interesting to watch

I've seen some with the plastic fins here in Germany. I believe they were from Nico, or so.
But yea, not very common indeed.

Missiles, Rockets and Batteries sounds perfect for a Pyro Encounter of the Display Kind, always a Rocket Star Awesome Time
It would be so cool if Cody did this with ball shells, canister shells etc.
Please do a firework fountain budget under $250
facts: the ones with cardboard fins were the ones that came out straighter
i love watching your video from philippines

I use a few Mcd straws and hot glue with my model rocket launcher to make those rockets go somewhat straight
That's not a bad idea.

I wonder how much it costs?

never been early to a CobyBPyrotechnics video
I’ve always wished they would make overpowered missies that’d be so cool
Crappy part about missiles is the plastic waste left all over. Paper and wood rockets are the goat
Great video, I liked the static camera, more of them would be awesome
Know what would have went well with these rockets?! A 3 stage nuclear rocket you built!!!! Haha you're the goat!
i love the 680 shot
I think the white clay may be a mixture of sugar and potassium nitrate. I could be wrong though... it is the substance that makes up the propellant of sugar rockets.

The missiles wirh the cardboard fins worked WAY BETTER than I thought they would. To bad they are out of production.
very cool video thank u bro

You can actually see the inert plug fly out sideways when it goes off.

Gotta try these!!
You might want a camera further away on a tripod at an angle so you're not suddenly whipping the camera around to follow the fireworks
