Great vid, helped me a lot! You deserve more subscribers bro!
Thanks Rick! I'm not stressed about it, if more people like you like the video, subscribe to our channel, and (bonus points) click on the bell icon then the channel will keep growing! We're just trying to put content out there that 1) will empower and encourage people take the first or next step into model rocketry and 2) create content the MR community can be proud of!
I wrapped the parachute too much on a slow fold and the parachute didn’t even deploy lol
Luckily I was only using an A8-3 engine and the rocket wasn’t that high up. I think I’ll launch it again for 4th of July
Thanks for the "fast fold" method. Was launching in cold weather today with some fails and I think it will help...chute plastic gets very stiff.
this actually helped me a lot as i've been working on custom model rockets with my 3d printer and cardboard tubes, but the parachutes have always been a problem coming out because the material I used creases very easily, but I will try the fast method you showed instead (:
Good glad to hear it! Let me know how the fast method works for ya at your next launch!
How is that eject how to make that
Loved the part where it showed how to make it
When the rocket is launching, will this parachute auto deploys or do we need to do any other thing to deploy the parachute.??.
You helped me so much! I've been testing parachute deployment methods for a while, turns out the way you fold the parachute REALLY makes a difference
YES! Glad we could help.
@@themodelrocket220 :) could you also put a tutorial on how to make body tubes
How to make a deployment system
@@RakuVlogs88 what method are you going to use, electronics, automatic (from the motor ejection charge), or mechanical
Back when I was flying rockets I would cut a round hole in the center of the parachute just like real parachutes have. This would stop the parachute from swinging like a pendulum, and also allow for a straighter descent since it's not swinging all over the place.
This video was super helpful to me! Also you should do a video on how to launch a model rocket. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the idea! We've been a little distracted with a side project that we'll be announcing in the next month or so, but honestly this will probably the #1 video we come back and make!
BUT HOW WILL THE CONE EJECT AND LET THE PARACHUTE OUT
After the engine burns out there's a short delay and then an ejection charge goes off to blow the nose cone off which pulls the chute out.
hi i have a question which one ejects better for a b44 slow or fast mostly I use slow
Either should work great at that size/likely weight. If it's windy I'd use slow so it doesn't drift as far. If it isn't windy I'd use fast to increase hang-time.
@@themodelrocket220 ohhhh... Ok thx a lot man
@@gopalverma25015 happy skys let us know what works best for ya
@@themodelrocket220 thx dude
hi sir I had a question...... It is that how can I launch a. Rocket without one of those Estes launch control
Full support good 👍
Big thanks
How high that rocket flys.
Thanks, helped a lot!
Glad to hear!
Can you make a video on how to wrap a streamer, and where to put it on the shock cord?
Wow thanks 😊 for this 🙌 video. your voice is also superb (it inspires me to try to make new rocket)
Thank you!!
Hey can you please tell me how to make a home made rocket engine ?
We're hoping at some point in the future to put together a long video about how to do home-made engines. But we would want to bring on a professional, or a scientist, or someone who reallllyyyyyy knows what they're talking about and can teach you exactly how to not blow yourself up doing it!
buy one from estesrockets.com or amazon or ur local hobby shop
How to made
This is just about a folding it, we haven't created a DIY video on it yet.
You show how to fold it and then you cut out the part where you're putting it into the rocket does it matter which end goes in first
