As a veteran of supporting the LGM-25C Titan-II system in the late 1960’s, I find your project fascinating, especially the launch silo. Amazing effort in all regards!
I was looking for ideas for rockets for my RC jet and RUclips directed me here. This is awesome. Thank you, RUclips. You finally didn't disappoint me for once.
This is some really awesome work. The MK 41 style launcher is top notch, and I appreciate the nod to the Navy. Will certainly be watching for more updates!
Its very interesting to see this video after recently getting into the rocketry part of youtube. I belivee youre the first person ive seen to rely so heavily on simulation to refine your rocket designs!
U put a lot of people including me and a lot of youtubers to shame. Damn this project and ur work is interesting. best regards and I hope ur projects is used for good goals
Out of curiosity, do you have an MS, or a Ph.D? If not, you may want to consider writing all of this up as a paper and consider submitting it to be published. Great work and I'm glad to see someone working on something I've only ever considered working on, but am simply too busy to do myself at the moment. Amazing work. I do have so many more questions, but this is neither the place nor the forum for it, Good luck!
Thank you. I got my MS recently, unfortunately not in rocket-related engineering though. You can always send me a RUclips message with any questions you have and I'd be glad to answer them!
A thought I had long ago was a camera looking back at the launch pad and feeding corrections (like a mouse in a way) to a gimbaled motor (or even simpler and lighter control using 3 fins and a linear solenoid (coil) controlling the trailing edge of the fins).
If you lengthen the strakes to the fwd end of the payload bay, you've replicated the Standard missile which has been virtually unchanged aerodynamically since the 1960s - indicating a very successful design. Like with Sidewinder, you've gone from front canard control, to rear control (on AIM-9X with TV ) Have a look where the aargm-er missile is going: (2, blended) strakes along the body, but @ 45° angles from the rear control surfaces ... otherwise, looking a lot like ... Standard
Thank you for taking the time to make this great video. I enjoy seeing the progress you make and how much effort you put in to get it working the way you want, well done!
roll reversal was noted with pilots in ww2 who exceeded the airpseed limits in dives. The ones who lived without their aircraft breaking up discovered their elevators would act in reverse at high enough speeds. so, pulling back as normal to decrease the dive would push them harder towards the ground.
This truly is amazing, had this video saved for a week or so and just came to it. Great work and hope nothing but the best for your future launches/projects which I’ll be waiting for
would be cool if you had an endless government budget to test a slew of rockets with gps guidance to land exactly where you program it without a recovery system. But for now its great seeing your designs, telemetry data, etc. Keep up the great work, highly commendable :)
if your control planes are on the same axis as the fixed planes, move them off axis.. the airflow disturbance of the front fins will affect the laminar efficiency of the rear fins.
I actually work with teams of professional engineers in the space industry. I’ve worked at a major space launch company you’ve definitely heard of. And you are putting those teams to shame. I’m a pretty old machinist so I’ve seen the rate of technological change going all the way back to the 1980’s when I first worked on avionics "computers" the size of double door refrigerators. The hinges on the cabinet were the size of your whole control system. I feel like you young guys who grew up with arduinos and 3d printers have really started taking things to the next level. Like 20 years ago these projects would have only been possible by a huge team with millions of dollars to spend. Once AI agents become a thing I think we’ll see the next doubling of capabilities. You should be proud
Hope this application for work at Spacex works out for you :) Very cool. Unimaginable project level, for me. I wish I could do stuff like this. Quite amazing.
Hammas can afford the real stuff. I reckon it'll be a disgruntled trumpist god botherer that uses this in a drive-by bear hunt roid rage attack on a billboard of a rainbow riding tay Tay drinking bud and holding hands with the prince of wokeness, biden
Awesome modular design. Great CFD skills. Best stabilization seen so far on youtube. You could probably try to design gimbaling for the booster next, and make a real missile.
If you get yourself a ground radar you can measure the actual position i 3D space and cross reference the programmed flight path with the actual flight characteristics.
Look at the Stinger missile operating system. It's ony a 70mm body with 4 rear fins. But it's a boat tail shape that gives more effective fin control without protruding much beyond tube diameter.
Man, I hope that when you said "graduated college" you didn't mean Bachelor's degree because , this is industry, country , scientist , Einstein, Oppenheimer level thing. And you are alone !!!!! Bro, you are a full package. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very impressive, wish i had the time to work on something like this. Have you considered putting the servos up front and running linkages down to the fins internally? You could move the bulk of the mechanism fore and open up more space for the motor.
Those are one of the few weapons completely banned. You can technically form 1 destructive device a missile with an explosive payload but it can’t have a seek after 2001 law prohibiting that
Well done! Very interesting watching the design evolve over time, many designs were very similar to IRL missiles. The final design shown in the simulation bore a striking resemblance to the Vympel R-24. Now to put an infared imager in the nose?
Awesome! You earned a sub! What about: 1. Steerable parachute to return to home (or where you want). 2. Parachute opens at max altitude? Seems you need to tame down the P gain early in the flight and ramp it up to normal after it gets going. How about a much lighter system, 4 servos just seem pretty heavy. A couple H13 long burn would be pretty cool.
It’s a good project. I always wanted to get into model rockets but then I think to my self how I would start and never finish my project like the 30 others that I have Laing around.
Lot of control theory stuff involved eh? I've been trying to get to grips with all that for a few projects I have in mind but I've found it a struggle. Probably because I'm trying to learn all the pre-requisite math as well; considering the last math course I took was high school 'consumer math'. Mainly the transfer functions I've been having a hard time conceptualizing to the point of having some sort of intuitive grasp of what's going on; regarding mainly the 'building blocks' that make them up, for lack of a better phrase. It would be neat to see a video on your process regarding systems analysis, choice of control systems layout, transfer function, etc. Amazing work though, would love to try out something similar some day.
Fine line between a science project, and an offensive weapon that can be used by non state actors. You should start a company to consult some of our US weapons manufacturers.
I would love to see you experiment with weight shifting. Rings inside the tube rotating lead slugs. Also, a high drag cone as a reentry vehicle with the same internal wight shift ring vs fins. Fins are so 1800's (JK)
Fantastic project, and great video! Roll reversal is a real mess :)
Thank you, I appreciate it!
You guys should definitely collaborate!
Why not use hybrid laminar flow control towards the fins?
Man is out here putting Lockmart to shame!! This is seriously one of the coolest projects I've ever seen, remember to charge the Navy 100x the cost!
Or sell them at 2x the price you still make bank and then they have millions of them
What is Lockmart?
@@MissilemanIIILockheed Martin. I concur he did a very well executed video. I'd expect nothing less from a 21st century rocket scientist. Inspiring.

A great watch, thanks for your time and effort putting this together.
Commenting to feed the YT algorithm. Awesome seeing a launch view without it constantly rolling.
roll reversal was noted with pilots in ww2 who exceeded the airpseed limits in dives. The ones who lived without their aircraft breaking up discovered their elevators would act in reverse at high enough speeds. so, pulling back as normal to decrease the dive would push them harder towards the ground.
So glad that I stumbled across your channel. This is an amazing project. I am really looking forward to seeing how it shapes up.
Great engineering! Looking forward to the next models and flights.
Wooow! This is really cool!!! Thank you for taking the time to film, comment and edit all of that! Have a wonderful day!

if your control planes are on the same axis as the fixed planes, move them off axis.. the airflow disturbance of the front fins will affect the laminar efficiency of the rear fins.
Especially moving waypoints would be fascinating to see

That is sweet dude, super impressed by the variety of skills and knowledge on display here
Whoa!
I'm glad youtube algo is giving you some love 'cuz this is some very impressive work.
way to much effort to have such little views tbh, awesome rocket design!!
Cannot wait to see where else you can take this project! Definitely got a follow from me!
Very cool project! Looking forward to your future builds!
Raytheon out here taking notes.
I respect your patience.
This is some seriously cool stuff and you're doing great work, earned a subscriber! I look forward to seeing what you do with this in the future.
My guy is really just out here designing missiles on youtube.
I don't see a warhead? Not a missle
Hey this is a really cool project and a nice video, good job!
Yea i first thought you just wanted to make a sam xD
But this is probably the best replica of a missile that i ever heard about.
Great project and congratulations on successful launch 🎉
Hey, definitely not Hamas here. Hope to see more material. Much love,
-definitely not Hamas.
Hammas can afford the real stuff. I reckon it'll be a disgruntled trumpist god botherer that uses this in a drive-by bear hunt roid rage attack on a billboard of a rainbow riding tay Tay drinking bud and holding hands with the prince of wokeness, biden
I agree with both statements!
Nice project and I love the “definitely not Hamas “ comment.
Gold star ⭐️
Dude whattttttttttttt! I am definitely gonna subscribe and hit the bell notification!
Amazing work bro keep doing what you do.
Insane rocket. I don't know why you don't have more subs
Awesome modular design. Great CFD skills. Best stabilization seen so far on youtube. You could probably try to design gimbaling for the booster next, and make a real missile.
Amazing project!!
Impressive work
Why does the alg only recommend you now? Subbed and notifications are on!
Why does the algorithm want me to make missiles and explosives? Man I have entered some kind of algo loop
When I eventually get missile launchers in my backyard, I'd get Lafayette Systems to make them.
Great video
so crazy to think that functioning rockets have been around for almost 100 years.
You are currently the coolest person I know
Very cool! Good job buddy!
Impressive. Most impressive.
Atlas like a spine🩻💀 I c what u did there🚀💜
Amazing video this is well worth a sub!

Awesome video. You got my sub.
You are doing better then Space X, almost as good as ULA and Blue Origin!😊

Cant wait for the high speed booster with long burn main stage.

This is so awesome!
translating to freedom units made my day :D
Funny how they're the units used by the British government and a symbol if their rule....
But yeah.... 'Freedom' units
Put a seeker and some explosives in it and it's basically a low-altitude short-range SAM
Those are one of the few weapons completely banned. You can technically form 1 destructive device a missile with an explosive payload but it can’t have a seek after 2001 law prohibiting that
Awesome Video!!
Phenomenal work! I wonder how high you can send one of these in the future
4:00 is this why the AIM-9 has the fin-tip gyro stabilization to prevent roll?
Well done! Very interesting watching the design evolve over time, many designs were very similar to IRL missiles. The final design shown in the simulation bore a striking resemblance to the Vympel R-24. Now to put an infared imager in the nose?
Not really. The total lack of midbody strakes makes it look more like a very, very cut-down Harpoon or shortened Standard-2.
Pretty cool project
ITAR will be adding some amendments soon me thinks.
Awesome! You earned a sub!
What about:
1. Steerable parachute to return to home (or where you want).
2. Parachute opens at max altitude?
Seems you need to tame down the P gain early in the flight and ramp it up to normal after it gets going.
How about a much lighter system, 4 servos just seem pretty heavy.
A couple H13 long burn would be pretty cool.
You rocket is still lacking a range to reach Israel, bro. Keep going
It’s a good project. I always wanted to get into model rockets but then I think to my self how I would start and never finish my project like the 30 others that I have Laing around.
So how long until you get a visit from the black-suits telling you your RUclips might be subject to ITAR 👀😅
I was kinda thinking the same thing. Hahaha
good work friend this is insane.
I would like to see this project used in a non military field like economic cloud seeding.
Good luck 🤞
OMG! That is soooooo cool!
You are hired sir.
Super cool build, I was wondering why you didn't make the static fins retractable so you could be stable on launch and maneuverable in the air.
Lot of control theory stuff involved eh? I've been trying to get to grips with all that for a few projects I have in mind but I've found it a struggle. Probably because I'm trying to learn all the pre-requisite math as well; considering the last math course I took was high school 'consumer math'.

Hello. The project is fantastic, is it possible to get to know the rocket in more detail?
Excellent channel, thank you for sharing all of your hard work. Have you considered preloading your linkages to eliminate backlash in the system?
Say hello to the ginger cat 🥰🤗
I would love to see you experiment with weight shifting. Rings inside the tube rotating lead slugs.
Also, a high drag cone as a reentry vehicle with the same internal wight shift ring vs fins.
