Wow, those are great pictures. What kind of camera was it? And do you figure 11 bar is about the max pressure you can put in your reinforced rocket?

Great photography! It looks like the rocket made it up a respectable altitude. Did you fly an altimeter?

no altimeter , i used a flycam one 2 , and the fiberglas tape would be able to hold over 20 bars of pressure .
Normally these botlles would already explode at 9 bars , and start to swell at 8 bars .But thanks to the tape it holds bigger pressures without swelling. i'll post a pic tonight.
