DetroitRocketeer Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Here is my first ever 3lb coreburner BP rocket. Details: Rammed granulated BP with no nozzle, used a clay bulkhead with a 3g flash header. 2015-05-15 19.00.57-1.mp4 I used a 36" x 3/8" square dowel as the rocket stick Let me know what you think Edited May 16, 2015 by DetroitRocketeer 2

DetroitRocketeer Posted May 16, 2015 Author Posted May 16, 2015 YEAH !!! Looks like success !!! Wonder where a guy finds tooling for that Did you use a nozzle? Nozzleless, and I would like to thank you Caleb for my success. The tooling is phenomenal and he helped a ton with the questions I had about construction.
WSM Posted September 13, 2020 Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) Congratulations. I use a nozzled design and confess, even though I've built everything from bottle rockets (1/4" bore) up to 6 lb size, 3 lb is my favorite large size. Keep up the research and development. That's where the greatest fun lays . WSM Edit: I forgot to mention, for rockets with larger or heavier payloads, I prefer longer sticks for straighter flights. Yours did good likely because of the light payload. For what it's worth... Edited September 13, 2020 by WSM
