VikingPyrotechnics Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 with the performance of the motor I am quite satisfied. (60-30-10) The titanium in the green stars has "hidden" the effect of win20 in the beginning. The timing of the report-ring was also not the best. (I have to build me a TF-cutter !!! ) All in all it was a nice rocket, I think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iylAFYiXF2A 3
leedrill Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 wow you are really stepping up your cans love them keep it up man
WonderBoy Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Nice rocket VP! How have you been cutting your timefuse? This one didn't seem to be as snappy as some of your other shells. How's 6-3-1 been working for you, are you milling it? I have always used a hotter mix in my BP motors. WB
VikingPyrotechnics Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 thank you guys @wonderboy i always cut my TF by hand. But, normaly i straighten out my timefuse before the cutting process. this time i did not 60-30-10 (unmilled ) is ok for headers up to about 300g. for bigger shells i like to use nozzleless motors. on this workhorses i get 450g up in the air. without problems
dan999ification Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Stunning display on a stick vp, I've watched a few times now. Dan.
mkn Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Sweet !!! Something I would like to work towards , I am very new at this, if you don't mind me asking: is it a 4" canister ? ring report with titanium what mesh ? are your stars round or cut, break BPCRH , any additives to break, size of canulle total weight of shell? any pics you can share of the build process. I enjoy all your videos !! Thanks for the intriguing display ! I made a time fuse cutter with a 3/8 " standoff nut with bolt, one full revolution = 1/16" of fuse, with care of anivil cutter the fuse is usually within a few 1/100th on a micrometer. I can post a pic if you like , very easy to build, just a bit of grinding on a wheel, and 3-4 dollars at the hardware store.Matt
VikingPyrotechnics Posted February 20, 2014 Author Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) this pic will answer the most of your questions http://www7.pic-upload.de/thumb/20.02.14/34h6miihotws.jpg The stars you are seeing are win20. I stacked 2 rows of that green stars on top of them. I filled the middle with MCRH ( 5/1) und 3g of that "spanish" booster. That´s all Edited February 20, 2014 by VikingPyrotechnics
mkn Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Thanks that does help a lot, Your tube rolling video was great, my tubes are coming out very well, solid and working in both core and end burner !Matt 1
BrainDamage Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 now we just need a tutorial keep up the good work
ddewees Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Unfortunately, I suspect you won't be seeing anymore anytime soon...
dagabu Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 ? He has disappeared from sight, no email reply's etc.
Zmuro Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Did something happened to him? I was wondering why he isn't posting anymore.
ddewees Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 He seemed to fall off the face of the earth right around November 20 something. That includes YouTube (not only him uploading new videos, but also liking/commenting on others videos... something he typically did), fireworking.com (he posted on almost a daily basis, never a gap longer than a week, for an entire year. Accumulated close to 700 posts I believe. Then at the end of October vanished for a month, only to return for one or two days. After that, nobody knows. That pattern was repeated here, except that he actually had some activity in this site in the first couple days of December. Didn't post anything, just logged in. Many have attempted to reach him through pm, YouTube and even direct email... and none of them have received any form of reply. Considering how polite and friendly he was, I can't imagine him ignoring an email from Ned Gorski wondering if everything is alright. To my knowledge, there isn't anyone on these forums who actually knows him personally... so we're left guessing what has happened. Could be anything really... arrest, car accident, death, suicide, who knows. If it was merely him deciding to take a break or even pursue another passion, then why won't he respond to anyone? Something ain't right...
VikingPyrotechnics Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 So many strangers worry about another stranger. As I said, everything is fine. I simply had too much going on.New work, got another daughter, etc. The next Rocket will be coming soon 1
