Re: Universal Rocket !!!!
Hi Dwrrule! I like what I see! You do very neat and professional looking work! Your rockets look like they are factory made, not homemade. Thanks for uploading the pictures.
I had a couple of questions come to mind when I looked at the photos.
1) Is that soap bubbles in the rocket?
2) Do you use a 'window' in the side of the rocket for the camera to see out of, or do you use an open hole? We tried to make a clear plastic window or use a clear bottle and it always makes the images blurry or distorted.
Good stuff!

Is the soap left from a flight the rocket just has made or do you have a purpose in store for the soap?dwrrule wrote:Yes thats soap an i do use a open hole, An thank you for the comments, I try to make them neet as possable an clean besides making them dependable.

Re: Universal Rocket !!!!
So you use soap foam to go higher? Do you agree that this does help with altitude? I always wondered.dwrrule wrote:The soap bubbles are left over after the fight. There gone the next day

Re: Universal Rocket !!!!
Hi,
OK, hmm let me understand this: You use a soap/water/air mixture as your reactant? And the purpose is to get longer burn times?
- Do you have an "exhaust pipe" on your rocket, or is the nozzle simply at the bottle throat?
