im stoked now...i want to see you do it...haha...im even considering trying it myself

you should add some bottlerockets too just so they make a badass noise...it'll add coolness points

[Directive0]

[enjoisoad]

hey whatever u do don't break the riv into a thousand pices

[Directive0]

god willing, the riv will be fine. I'm going to install a black box just incase tho, to prevent future incidents

[holikujak]

my idea that ima try as soon as the snows gone is gonna be like thise kinda:
___________
|0 0 0 0 0 0 0|

[Directive0]

what are you using for ignition? Are you going to ignite all rockets at once? and also, make sure you test it first and film your test, I want to test right now but theres snow.


Hey...I got my third dot! ALRIGHT!

[Directive0]

Im going to use an old hardrive chassy I have for the engines, I mounted it to show you the first part of this experiment. I knew it would come in handy some day

[joseph]

i cant believe you are going ahead with this. make sure you film it and wear leathers/helmet etc... you may want to try it lying down first. just an idea.

[Directive0]

I'm using this to get a credit for school, so I'm kinda committed now. I've done lots of stupid **** like this before, so its not a big deal. Yah I intend to wear LOTS of equipment, once the initial tests are completeed.

I think some people are overestimating the power of these engines. Although I am arguably underestimating and therefore have more to lose. But the tests will show us.


On an unrelated topic, anyone know what materials are un-flammable?

[MattofMattRabbit]

that wadding stuff that you get with model rocket kits

[Directive0]

Yeah I'd hate to be ******* censored.
On the unflamable clothing, best thing is Nomex, it's used in racecar overalls, not sure how much it'll set you back though.
