@@OwnittEdits I know but everyone's making such a big deal about it even though this isn't the first launch from the uk, launcher one coined that. Not to mention that it's a German company, they launched V2's from German soil in the war, why not launch from home turf? The real hype will come when a rocket launches from British/English soil, not Scottish soil.
Gratulation an das Team der RFA und an alle die mitgeholfen haben so weit zu kommen. Sieht einfach aus, ist aber eine enorme Leistung über alle Diszipline hinweg. Respekt und Bewunderung. Macht weiter so - das wird (ist jetzt schon) ein super Erfolg auf weltklasse Niveau. 💯💯💯💯
I literally live next to the Rocket Factory of Augsburg. I can see it from my window haha. I never knew exactly what they are even doing. That’s kinda interesting because i am just sitting on my bed, seeing their lights still turned on and wanted to know what they actually do. So i ended up here haha 😂
Go go go RFA! I really like RFA's philosophy and scrappy attitude. I think they are the closest thing to a European version of SpaceX. I wish them luck!
Just watched Tim Dodd and wow! He knows engineering and the simplicity of a complicated world it can be. I doubt in time he will upgrade to make a 300bar rocket with a bigger beer keg
It's not a proper rocket until you get the Bird flying away for its life shot (35secs) Congratulations. I hope everyone is buckled down. This is going to be one hell of a ride.
I'm very sure that it was just to characterise how vibrations and torque (due to asymetrical thrust) changes, how plumes interact, whether there are some unexpected interactions via fuel system etc... Now they have data for different engines sets/count. I expect them to normally start in pairs tenths of a second after each same as F9 or Electron (both have 9 engines too).
Everyday Astronaut (RUclips channel) just recently released a great video on RFA and Isar Aerospace. Now that both get close to their first launch attempts, they will probably get much more attention.

Congratulations to team RFA! Huge step towards first flight, and I'm so excited to see the first vertical rocket launch from the UK 😍

Thanks for showing us all these incredible camera angles.
Let's goooo RFA 🚀🚀🚀, goosebumps when the first engine ignited🔥, such a huge achievement. I respect and salute the hard working people🫡.
Congratulations team RFA, hope a bright future awaits. For all mankind!

Awesome. Congratulations to RFA and Saxa Vord Spaceport.
This is amazing, I can't wait to go up and watch the launch in person.
Really big smile from here in the UK. Well done fellas.
Congratulations from America! I am so excited to what you all do in the future!
Exciting times, congratulations all. Hope to get to watch the first launch in person 🎉
That was impressive! Congratulations to the whole Team and thank you for taking us along with the ride!
Congratulations guys!!!!
Viel Erfolg kann man nur wünschen! Ich hoffe, ihr schafft das!
This is fantastic RFA. Paul @ Rexel Lerwick
That shutdown was cleaaan
As a former British resident of Augsburg, I was very interested to hear about this development.
WOOT!! Congratulations!!
Looks awesome, so happy to see your success
AMAZING. Nice job guys!
Congratulations! Best wishes going into orbit!
Awesome! Great work and Congratulations!
Impressive stuff!
Awesome footage! Great work everyone!

amazing view, with an even more amazing rocket
Just watched Tim Dodd and wow! He knows engineering and the simplicity of a complicated world it can be. I doubt in time he will upgrade to make a 300bar rocket with a bigger beer keg
Wonderful !
glückwunsch :)
Simply awesome!
If I was in Europe I would definitely try to work with you guys.
I currently work for Arojet Rocketdyne in Washington state
Gänsehaut!
well done!
This is the only company I'd like to work for.
Was that a honk at the end? Getting some raptor vibes
Very nice progress and of course pictures. So next time with 9 engines? :)
To infinity and beyond gentlemen.
Congratulations 💐💐
Herzlichen Glückwunsch, wo ist euer Testplatz?
Needs more testing. Next time, install the CEO on the rocket.
Awesome!
I like your control room, looks very basic (almost like in someone’s living room), not as posh as others
How many times can these engines start?
It's not a proper rocket until you get the Bird flying away for its life shot (35secs)
Congratulations.
I hope everyone is buckled down.
This is going to be one hell of a ride.
LETS GOOOOOOOO
Stark Leute 👑
Let them cook 🥹🥹 #GoRFA
Ist nur in dem "weiß angelaufenen" Bereich Treibstoff?
Macht so weiter
Came here after watching Everyday Astronaut video with you guys
does the extremely staggered ignition reflect an actual flight’s?

Thunderbirds are go - or will be soon, on Unst....

sad that newer european start ups are not that shown on the internet

@@imrevadasz1086 yeah, sadly its only the two most popular ones 😔
Nothing like some vague music score over the sound of a rocket engine... Who thought that was a good idea.
speaking in english?? a german proud company??? what a shame!
