Launch pad that has its own propulsion system to kick the rocket off the pad at a stable velocity, then air start the motor at 100-200 feet.Has it been done?I was thinking a competition system that uses 4 rods and an elevator that shoots to the top and stops. Momentum carries the rocket up until the predetermined height for aux ignition.I imagine this could work nicely if constructed strong enough. I suppose you could use pneumatic pressure to launch the sled as well.Comments?
