Sweden. 24, 25 feb. there will be a live streaming, so i will post it here when i know the link. there is a super duper hydrogen peroxide rocket coming from USA , the yellow one in the poster, which is gonna try and beat the present world record of 249 mph, which slammin Sammy Miller set 35 years ago. heres a link to Sammys record so you know what to expect. and a link to show how my little Hybrid rocket might work. (if she doesnt explode)











last year i burnt the back end out. now ive fitted a graphite venturi, which should survive

i survived to race another day.

just after this photo (by Mark Thomas) the plastic cartridge got plugged, and the flame melted through the rocket pipe at the front, upwards through 3 blast plates towards my chest. luckily i had 4 plates just there, so no worries.

enjoy the video
