Hello my fellow Rocketeers! My name is Chris, and I am a new member to this forum. I am not new to rocketry, however.
I have come here to ask your support. Myself and a team of two of my peers have decided that we want to set a new world altitude record for water rocketry. Our school club which we are based out of does not have the money available to finance such an endeavor, and we, ourselves, have a difficult time funding our projects on their own. That is why I come to my brothers and sisters of the sky to ask for your much needed support.
Even if you cannot donate, maybe spread the word to your friends or family. Any support is greatly appreciated.
If you would like to donate to our glorious cause, then here is the link: www.gofundme.com/world-record-water-rocket
-Edit
I have shut down the campaign after careful consideration, and the reasons can be found below, I am not going to list them again.
we have been asked for some specs of our new rocket design, so here they are:
Volume:~6 liters
Nozzle Diameter: 22mm
Dry Mass:1300 g
We will be using a launch tube,
The rocket will have a fiberglass skeleton and then be reinforced with carbon fiber.
The record we are trying to beat is 2723 feet or ~830 meters. We hope to achieve 3000 feet or more.
The video of our latest rocket, the one which we will base our new one off of, can be found here: [video=youtube;PGb_vLv7xM4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGb_vLv7xM4[/video]
