Posted by: blakejr

Video duration: 95 seconds

Test 12 and 13 on 8-6-2008 were the first flight tests of my motors.
Test 12 used PVC-7 with 23.3g of KNSUCS.
Test 13 used PVC-5 with 30g of KNSUCS.
The launches were very loud and fast. Both went out of sight and were not recovered, but considered great successes.

1/2\" PVC Rocket Test 8 Fuse 1/2" PVC Rocket Test 8 Fuse

Video duration: 43 seconds

Fuse Test (Pre-Test 8):
This tested a new fuse design to see if it would light a 2 inch test strand. This took place before Test 8. I loaded it into
a motor with no nozzle and lit.
Unfortunately I didn't think of the fact that the test stand would take some heat, so as you can see it lit on fire! I blew
it out before anything major was harmed.
