Project Inspired By: Ritchie Kinmont with www.sonicdad.com (bit.ly/SDRandomizerProject)
Project History & More Info:
This project was inspired by my good friend Ritchie Kinmont with www.sonicdad.com.
We collaborated together on a design for a rocket that could be powered by the sugar motors I showed you how to make in a previous video (bit.ly/SugarRocket) made with PVC, sugar, kitty litter, and stump remover.
The new “Screw-Lock" version features threaded PVC risers, that allow the motors to quickly be changed, for faster turn-around times, and they have built in ejection charges for popping out the parachute at apogee.
Last year I promised that if there was enough interest, I'd try to develop a rocket that could be used with the sugar motors .. and my goal was to build a version where the sugar motors could screw onto the bottom of the rocket for convenience.
At the beginning of the year, the Sonic Dad team reached looking to do some kind of a collaboration, and the timing was perfect. So I asked Ritchie if he could help me engineer a sugar rocket.
Most rocket clubs won't let you fly sugar motors, except on special experimental launch days. However, the “Randomizer” rocket can also be used with commercial “Estes” D12-3 and E9-6 black power motors. So if you go with those, there's a good chance they'll let you fly your rocket at any club launch.
The rocket can fly over 1,000 feet high, and depending on the winds, can stay in the air for around 5 minutes while it floats back to the ground, so it's important to be super cautious where, and when, you launch to avoid doing any damage.
This video completes the rocket building series, and I'm really excited to share my passion for building and launching rockets with completely home-made equipment. In my opinion, it's the best way to learn about how rocketry really works.

Rest In Peace you’re experiments will always be remembered😔
Yeah
Yes
Yes

What does Rest In Peace mean to you?
One of the first videos of yours that I actually tried, thanks so much man, RIP
Tom M did it worked???
@@stefankurija4960 worked perfectly, even built my own motors
👍🏻
omg dude i am thinking of making this for my science fair did the parachute deploy with no difficulties??
@@aki2405 no issues, we used quite a tight fit between the nose cone and fuselage/ body but it still popped off no issues
What hurts is that I will never see what else he could have made, but at least we still have videos like this.
Yes, his legacy will be remembered though.
where does it hurt the most? in your v4gina? :-D :-D :-D
Wish you could make a time machine, we are in need of one, R.I.P

To tell him not to go paragliding?

If had a time machine,i would destroy where homwork came from
You are a life saver. My son is sick today and is missing a field trip to the aviation museum. They are building rockets. He has done this before with Scouts, but this is for school.
Your videos have helped my family in so many ways and today you have made a 13 year old boys sick day better. Thank you.
That sounds sweet
What a great dad you are
I am about to cry
amythest101 that’s sounds great! Glad it worked out

Champagne glasses for nose cones...Never would have thought of that one! Perfect choice. Excellent comprehensive rocket video, this is great.
+NightHawkInLight That's a great compliment coming from you. Thanks! ;)
I love your projects and I have done a few of them. How many rockets have you built? I recently lost a rocket that I have had for years.

All of this comes together so well man. Grant really had a vision, you can really see his passion in it all. I wish this was around when I was growing up.
He is dead
This video is the video that gave me an actual hobby, and completely changed my life. I am at such a loss for words. Rest in piece.
Peace or pieces.
I know i should be sad now since he passed away but the seriousness in you and the “piece” in the end made me chuckle.
I love how I told myself that I would only watch this for a minute and skip around and 12 minutes later I watched the entire video and thought it was awesome. Your videos somehow keep the audience interested and make 12 minutes seem like 1. This project seems nice and I might have to give it a shot someday. nice job!
Yes, after seeing multiple videos of this being used in videos, I finally know how to build one. You're awesome Grant.

I mean technically you could make a very easy rocket launcher with the sugar rocket, explosive tip, and a head filled with gunpowder.

@@chiilin6224 it isn't
Just found this video in 2023. Buying the kiddo a model rocket starter kit for Christmas, and wanted to do something a little more in depth, and hands on with him too. This project and the subsequent DIY motor build video are going to be PERFECT!!
Miss You King of Random! At least your passing was while doing your passion. Your projects were the absolute BEST in the opinion of one who has been a born maker for 61 years.
Well Grant you've done it, thanks for all the knowledge and your dedication. It wont be forgotten. Your actually what got me into rocketry, thanks!
I’ve been watching him since 2014 the king will always still be with us

Ah miss this guy
Admit it, most of us watch the videos but dont make the project.
lol that's what I do😂😂😂😂
its just interestimg tho i guess the only i could make is a glowing goob from potato😅😅

actually i built a rocket using fuel form the the rocket fuel tutorial
it worked perfectly but i almost got myself blew up.... :P
What impresses me the most is the craftsmanship of this guy.
Love the quick motor mount. It solves so many problems with motor mounts.
This video inspire me so much rip the king of random

Tried this build and did test launch today. Flew great!!!!! Plan to build more.
This video is what inspires me to start doing DIY projects that culminated in my current RUclips channel! Thanks, a lot!
I watched the video 6 times in about 3 years but never built it
Same
But now after what happened to him im going to finally build it
@@hiabst I just built mine it works really well so much fun!
@@hiabst Agreed. I'm doing this with my son here soon. Starting with a prebuilt kit and then going to do the home made engines and rockets.
@@Triscuitwells1242 that's exactly what I did
Saved. Love this build! I wish there was a bit more detail on how exactly the parachute deploys. I guess it's just a loose fit and the momentum of the chute wad pops the cap off(once the rocket stops moving forward)?
The black powder in the top of the rocket creates a pressure wave when it is ignited by the time delay mix and that pressure deploys the parachute
Great video. Very clear instructions. Thanks for sharing.
R.I.P. you legend.
You got me through some hard times, you didn't deserve what happened.

That rocket looks like it was bought! Great job!
Now this is Next Level of Creativity 🔥🔥! *Loved this ROCKET* Would be awesome to launch it by myself!

The King of Sandpaper
R.I.P our king of random
The rocket works great, except that the motor needs to be inside the rocket body (less than an inch should be hanging out) so that the center of gravity is moved up towards the nose cone. It will come off of the launch pad much straighter.
A friend built two of these. One he made exactly like the video and one with the modification I suggested above. Both fly great, but the one with with the design in this video comes off the launch pad slightly sideways before the aerodynamic forces on the fins cause it to straighten up. I believe it is because the center of gravity is too low. The rocket with the modification came off the launch pad beautifully and flew straight.
Where you move the motor mount depends on whether you plan on building the screw lock engines or using Estes engines. They are different lengths.
Did your friend have a parachute deployment system or did he just shove the parachute into the rocket
Instead of going out to your local CVS or hardware store to buy wrapping paper then cutting the cardboard part of it equally 4 inches long, you can actually just use the cardboard part of your next empty roll of toilet paper because that’s also exactly 4 inches long too: )
Great video though. Loved it. I’m definitely gonna try to make this exact model rocket with my friends this summer! Thanks so much! :)
I miss this guy
This was the first video I saw by them and it was AWSOME that was a few years ago when I started to love space I was sad when he died R.I.P Grant I will mis your creations videos

Great idea! Thank you!
I don't understand how the parachute deploys in this rocket? I'm guessing once it falls the air shoots up the rocket and pops the top cap off automatically? Seems like it'd be kinda hit or miss though?
My thoughts exactly. In fact, I have successfully used umbrella fabric to make parachutes for rockets. My big rocket actually has two of them, one 4' and one 5'.(it weighs about 6 lbs)
