damn VP just keep getting better, keep the vids coming i always enjoy your stuff yeah the crossettes could be a little better but god damn those motors are kick ass i think im going to have to go back to the drawing board with my 3lb core burners to try to match the performance to yours

do you mind running me through your methods again

what tubes , pressed or rammed , what bp ratio , and spindle dimensions

oh and what delay comp did you use this time was it a winokur again cause it looks a lot more white on the camera

cheers for sharing the vid

No problem :)

 

Tubes have an ID of 19mm. All my rockets are pressed up to 9000psi.

Fuel ist straight BP + 3% paraffin wax disolved in acetone. ( For 100g BP, i use 3g wax and 30g acetone )

My spindle is 15cm in lenght, 9,5mm at the base and about 3 mm at the tip. For delay i used 8g of Win39. ( only screen mixed )

Yes, i got a new camera that films much better than my old one ^_^

 

Hope this helps a little bit ?!

Can you please share the silver composition. The break was perfect.

Posted
And the break as always? BP on cork? Given the fact it was so strong, I guess the shell took lots of it?

Thank you Fred for the kind words :)

 

@Zmuro

 

The comp was WIN 39

 

@ a_bab

 

Break was BP on cork and some booster ^_^

Wow, that was phenomenal! Thanks for sharing! Didn't know Win 39 was so dense and bright!

 

Edit: What camera did you use to film this? It had no bright white spots, which was perfect.

VP i cant get the winokur to work properly did you have any problems with it consolidating mine dosnt want to form a grain even at 10 000psi on the comp. Ive only been trying it in stingers and even with no nozzle the winokur just dosnt want to work for me seeing as your the only one ive seen do it

if you can help me get it working id really appreciate it

 

just to say im using win 39J not just win 39 but i dont see that being the issue

@ LP

Camera is a Sony HDR-CX 410 E.


@ leedrill

I have no problems with the mixture. Even with win39j I never had problems.

Whether screen mixed or from the ball mill. Always works without problems.??!!
