Hey guys,
It's been a while since I last posted. I'll be using this thread to casually document Chaminade's Rocket Club's High Power Attempt. Progress has been slow, we are behind schedule but on budget. For those who missed this post, https://www.rocketryforum.com/showt...ltitude-Questions-for-High-School-Rocket-Club, I'm leading a high power attempt at Chaminade College Preparatory in West Hills, CA. We are collaborating with a mentor from NASA, Aerojet Rocketdyne, and Environmental Aeroscience Corp. So far, we've taken delivery of the chemicals (no details, I know the rules), graphite rod, casing, and bulkhead. All that's left for our two characterization burns are the o-rings, fabrication, and assembly. These will be M-engine tested in a 5" diameter steel tube with an aluminum bulkhead. Following these tests, we'll step it up to a full static test and launch by next Christmas.
