A while back, in a thread I had started on general ramblings,
https://www.rocketryforum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6087
I had mentioned about a TRF Rocket building project that could focus on cloning a rocket, or building a rocket from scratch.
The intent was to see if this community would be interested in a set of tutorials that would take you through the entire building process of a rocket, and would also serve as a dual way to give this community a group project to enjoy, and also be a learning tool for the newer rocketeer whom has never tried this before.
A few members showed some interest in this idea, so I thought I would put together a proposal of what we could do, and let the community decide if its worth the time.
First we need to decide on a rocket design to foucs on, and I'd like to ask you to choose a rocket that you'd like to see built. Then once we have 10 designs to choose from, we can add a poll and vote on it.
Secondly, if this is something that interests you, maybe we can get a few members involved with the details, that way we can share the duties of creating these projects.
Finally, part of the reason for doing this project, would be to help support the companies here that are regulars to this forum. So if this flies, parts could be ordered from companies on a rotational basis.
I've thought of 3 ( of course, I should add the Terrier base here because it interests me greatly - but I'm trying to stay neutral..lol )
Orion 2 - Argentina Rocket - Pgs 330-331 Rockets of the World
Corporal - USA - Pgs 87-89 Rockets of the World - top stage of the Wac-Corporal.
NACA Deacon test rocket or Deacon Rockoon Pgs 122-123 Rockets of the World
Naturally all of this is open for debate, additions and corrections, so your input and suggestions would be appreciated. 8)
Cheers,
