This is for a mate to show him some details of my endburners, not a tutorial or a "how to make a BP rocket". I know there are better tuts on YT.
Update: Thank you all for the positive feedback!

(1.) NaNO3 comes out as a comet. This oxidizer was always a troublemaker. (2.) Sr(NO3)2. Good for the moment, a shitty lift of, but the color is exactly that what I want (3.) My second attempt with the KNO3 epoxy mix. Hmmm, the drilled euro cent coin do the job, The rocket flys over 100 yards with a fine trail of smoke. I was satisfied...

Don´t know why the burning pellet jumped on my table, or why the rocket developed a pulsation. Btw, the ingnition set was no strobe device. Maybe it was wrong to ignite the rocket inside.

My new workshop. 1: NH4NO3/Fe2O3/Mg grit 2: NaClO3 65/35% 3: forget it. 4: NaClO3+ Mg grit/shavings, all with PU-Binder. Think number two was the best.

My first attempt with Nighthawkinlight´s propellant. I made the misstake to modify the mix, Not enough fine Mg in it, to much Mg grit, so it failed. Anyway nice to see the white/blue light.
