So, You may have already seen this video of my 4' tall 3in dia model rocket launch...
However, I recently been processing ways to get this thing higher. (Not to "high altitude", just at least 3x higher than befor (It reached 1300ft))
[video=youtube;AKCJOxggPLc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKCJOxggPLc[/video]
I used two F engines placed side by side inside the body tube. Rather than increasing the number of engines or size, I've been processing
setting them in multistage. (two boosters below with two cruise engine above) I sort of new to this, any suggestions to the best ways to do this? Do the booster stages have to fall out after ignition of the second stage? Also, with all that flame of the second stage buried up inside the body tube, don't i risk it catching fire? thanks!
