Thanks to Jim @ Tahoma Photography
8 foot rocket 14 foot flame
Inside story..I glued the grains into the two piece liner and had major difficulty getting it into the case. I've never had to beat on a motor...so hard. I stopped working on the project for a week contemplating what to do.
I was relieved that the motor survived ignition.
The fins staying on..was another milestone. It simmed to Mach 3. When the deployment bay..buckled and the rocket continued on it way..was a surprise. Finding the rocket with the fins still attached ..fast flight and a fast stop...brought a smile to my face..(which I needed)
Thanks to all that said I was crazy and it wouldn't work!
It almost did!
