Hi All. I am relatively new to rocketry and just attained level 2 last month. I enjoy this endeavor a great deal and have been studying composite motor making the last few weeks and plan on "rolling my own" soon. Thanks for granting me membership!!

please get a mentor. YouTube can't teach you everything.
Safety has to be first and foremost. Diyng (or getting badly burnt) because you don't know ALL of the safety procedures is a real possibility.
Yes, it can be fun, educational and challenging, but I can't stress enough the need to get a mentor

You think @prfesser is some sort of celebrity or something?!? Shiesh....
Welcome from Alabama neighbor!
Welcome, but remember that research or self made motor construction cannot be fully discussed on the open forum. We have a special place for that.
I'll wave hi as soon as I can see above the snow drifts. Until then, welcome.
Welcome! Do you fly with SEARS?
I appreciate your concern. I don't use YouTube very much, preferring textbooks and computer software. I am a retired engineer that worked at the Naval Air Warfare center so am well versed in safety protocols and practices. I designed and built my Level 1 and 2 rocket that functioned exactly as predicted!! In truth though it was a bit heavier than predicted. One of the primary attraction of rocketry for me is the unlimited capacity for experimentation. I am working on a "return to origin" recovery system using a ram air canopy (which I also designed).
A signed copy would be a treasure!You think @prfesser is some sort of celebrity or something?!? Shiesh....
Yes I do! Did my L1 and L2 cert at the 11/5 launch. A well run and professional group.
I have and would really like a signed copy!Welcome aboard and congratulations on your certifications! Have you checked out the book Experimental Composite Propellant? The author is on this forum so you might be able to get an autographed copy
