Strobe Rocket

Hi

All strobe tutorials i read about use AP based strobe formulas, but i was wondering if they work the same with nitrate based strobes like blesser white?

Posted

They do not. Nitrate strobes are not regular enough to yield the same effect.

I agree with mumbles, for a regular and consistent strobing effect as well as the loud popping sound, you will need an AP strobe.

Why too bad? AP works great... one of my favorite oxidizers.

I thought about that afterwards... wasn't sure where "Mr. Typo" was from.

"Nitrate strobes" are in fact a glitter-type of reaction. This means lots of dross. No way it will work the same in a rocket, but some people made glitter rockets already.

Well glitter rockets aren't that hard to make even with normal comps, but the real interesting thing i was after is of course the helicopter sound type one.

The problem with AP is not that i can't get it, its more a price and law thing.

A 1lb rocket will take around 30g of AP, so when you break it down its not that expensive.
