Hello all,
This is kind of heavy for a first post, but Ad astra. I am looking to design a liquid fueled engine, using kerosene and nitrous oxide. I know that there has been general interest in the idea of a liquid fuel engine for a while, and there still seems to be a desire for one to be developed:

System Solaire also designed a system, but seems to not have caught on with many people.

I plan on using non-explosive ignition systems, such as spark-ignition and open-source hardware (OSHW) in order to control ignition and throttling. The first design is looking at 65 pounds of thrust for 2 seconds, putting it in the mid-I range, depending on how it tests out.
This pic gives the basic layout of the design, minus the plumbing and the electronics.
I am looking at getting a prototype on the test stand by the end of August.

Thanks for looking. Any feedback is appreciated.
