I have build most of my rockets because i'm interested in the kit. Sometimes its just that life will not be complete with out it. So far all of my HPR rockets till now have one small design flaw most through no fault of my own due to size or ejection baffles, making my selection of motors limited.
This will be the first time I will build a rocket to fit a motor, of course I will add design elements that I been wanting to see in a rocket. Only problem really is the motor hasn't even been certified yet, soon though soon. The Loki 38/1200 J-1127.
My initial OR sim shows the rocket reaching 1400 ft per sec with the 38mm J-1000 that is certified. I'm sure the rocket will need to be fiber glassed or built from glass tube to stay together. The design is not finalized but the basic shape is what I'm after, how its built and exact lengths are still being tweaked. The OR file will give you the basic idea.
I have done some slow motion studying of this video and as far as I can tell this motor is producing roughly 6 feet of flame that is more than 12 inches in diameter!
:headbang:
I can some it up in two words, I got to have it! err humm...
