      The difference is that at the point when Joe's runs out of fuel it's moving sideways pretty fast.

The fact that he's trial and erroring suggests he's not approaching this the right way.

    The takeaway of this video goes beyond the future of rocketry. This guy is a prime example of determination: He had a non-STEM degree, working in the lowest rank of A/V production. Through pure hard work and dedication literally made himself into a rocket scientist & entrepreneur (with probably tons of lucrative offers). Further drives the argument that the classical educational and career model is dying out.

  • @juliusfucik4011
    @juliusfucik4011 6 лет назад +227

    Just from a control engineering perspective you can not really make this work with a model rocket using solid propellant. There is no way to alter thrust once it goes off. You can get the perfect altitude setting for a motor only to have it be slightly different for the next motor. A gust of updraft can put you off target. This is why control engineering exists in the first place; to iron out the small differences and still reach a set goal.
    My suggestion; use a hybrid engine that uses a solid propellant and a gas so that you can control the thrust by controlling the gas flow.

    HOT TIPS: The scale of your rocket makes landing on grass similar to a Space-X rocket landing in the woods on rolling hills. To compensate for this while keeping the same landing gear looks, you could do a few things. You already have the sensors and PID controller, so put that USB battery inside the rocket body and use it to shift the center of gravity with cheap microservos. You could get a similar or better result with a linkage from your motor gimbal to the landing struts that connect when the springs deploy them. Alternatively, you could give the landing gear their own servos (should only need two with a clever mechanism) and this would eliminate the burning band release and associated failure modes. Servos are more reliable in terms of timing. Also, look into "thrust reversal" as used on jet engines. With careful heat shielding, a thrust reverser can nullify the thrust from your solid rocket engine, giving the effect of shutting it off without switching to a liquid or hybrid rocket setup. Most importantly, if you want someone to hire you, don't attempt to look like them. This gains you zero brownie points (unless they need a fall guy or stunt double) and maxes out the creepy points. If a dude wants a replica of himself, nature has a mechanism for that. It's not a bad trait for picking up chicks or acting jobs though, since you technically look like a famous billionaire. Good luck on your project!

      @buckstarchaser2376 6 лет назад +1

      @@Stealth360stealth I completely agree that he naturally has a significant resemblance to the very person he's informally asking for a job from, and I suspect that the video producer did too. I also understand that a person's appearance can change significantly, based on their styling choices and outward expression. At 0:30 in this video, it's evident that he has only a vague resemblance to Elon Musk. Notably, his rocket is displayed with his business logo "BPS" and is adorned with the US flag, indicating that he identifies as an American with his own business idea. Over the course of the video, his style changes. With all the memorabilia that he wears and surrounds himself with being associated with one other business person and company that he expresses desire to work for, the similarity becomes overtly unnatural. I have nothing against him personally, and I pointed out that giving up his individuality to adopt that of another results in neither. Keep in mind that you liked the previous observations when they applied to a human creation, but not when I used that same process to critique the aspects of a human-created persona. I strongly suspect that the rapid change in appearance and gradual change in facial expressions, etc. were likely a product of feedback from the video segment's producer and the clips displayed were chosen by the editors. I suspect that he was styled and coached to exaggerate these similarities on advice from the show's producer, and since he has a photography business, likely followed the advice from what he would consider a successful version of himself without regard for the difference in objectives. The problem with that, and the underlying message of my comment's final tip, is that a person who is willing to adopt someone else's persona to replace their own, as well as to start one's own rocket business and state a desire to be hired by a competitor, is mechanically unlikely to succeed in those goals just as the other things I gave advice on. The statement I gave was intended to be self explanatory to prevent the need for a block of text as large as this one.

From his demonstration of mastery in keeping the rocket upright in flight with the current thrust vectoring, I'd say it's within his ability to implement it. Imagining a group of Estes A10 motors firing up just at the end, that would be exciting to watch. Unfortunately, solid motors are notoriously hard to light off simultaneously. I recall the Mythbusters were able to pull it off though.

    1:40 no one feeling anxious seeing how fast the ceiling fan spinning behind him? Like it's gonna decapitated him any time.

    I know this video is old but I’ll comment anyway. I am 44 and just started my path on rocketry. My friend and I are building a sugar based solid propellant rocket. Neither of us has ever done anything like this. We are very excited even though we know the likelihood of success is minimal. Dreamers encourage dreamers. I love your videos. The only failure is failure to put forth effort! I hope you achieve your dream. 🤙
