Need help for simplest stager
I need help for building a multistage rocket, and I have no idea on building the staging mechanism. Gardena stagers are a bit too complicated and I don't have FTC tubing, and please don't mention anything about crushing sleeve mechanisms. Anything simpler? Please tell me step by step. Thanks.

Re: Need help for simplest stager
You just eliminated the simplest systems for staging. Anything else is way more complex. You could probably cheat and not use a serial stager at all. A parallel stager would technically qualify. Just make some hooks on the side and attach parallel boosters with a larger nozzle diameter so they fall off while the core is still under thrust. That is often referred to as a 1.5 stage system.RocketScientist wrote:I need help for building a multistage rocket, and I have no idea on building the staging mechanism.
