anywho, I got fascinated with Rockets, first with NASA, you know, Space shuttle and all that when I was very young, like 3 years old. Then I got cool with Model Rockets....Made many and had hundreds of flights without a hitch...Then, i decided to retire from Model Rockets....Settle down, and watch TV Like the lazy bum i am....Ten I saw This video [youtube][/youtube]
I was amazed....At the dedication people had for Water Rockets and that they actually go beyond the small bottles with fins you pumped up when you were in Summer Camp....So Now i've slowly collected water bottles and am stacking them first off to just get the Shape of a rocket...I plan to have 4 boosters around 1 main tube that goes up about 2 meters....Then have a small 2nd stage which uses the air that goes by the rocket as it goes up, that air goes through a hole into a tube which goes into the 2nd satge, eventually, it'll go up and small light wheels on the side wil roll off the edges of the 1st stage, carrying it up, ity's a simple way for staging and no problems....And this is ALL without a fligh computer...I have no brain power to make some wacky computer chip thingy.
Alll I've done so far is stack bottles on eachother to try to get the shape of the rocket, just to see the shape of the rocket, give me an idea of what it looks like...
