Okay, this is not strictly water rocket related but I thought it was interesting. One of the guys at the last launch event asked me if we had done any...

Hello Pitan, Cool! Looks like it works pretty well. :) I'm sure flour is a bit cheaper than talcum powder too. Do you have any performance specs on how it...
... Well.. No, we have not done any 'scientific' measurements on the flour rocket performance. We just do it for fun (and all the mess they created afterward)....

I wonder what will happen if we put gasoline instead of water. And launch it pass a lit candle. Just a thought.......

not to mention using lpg instead of CO2 or N2. I'd thought once of using my refrigerants at a minimum cost of $25per# and a $25000 fine for non-compliant...
... I had a friend ask me a similar question. He wanted to know if we could set up a two stage rocket. The first stage a conventional water rocket and the...
I remember seing a a waterrocket website some time ago, where some guy put a new-year-rocket on top of a waterrocket-booster. I think it flew well - i'll try...
Some 2-stage pyro rockets use an electronic timer or altimeter to fire the second stage. To prevent premature second stage ignition, launch detect is by...

Very nice! With all that flour, if you add a water rocket you could have bread dough! Tim Cahoon...
I have placed the pictures of the last flour rocket launch on the web server. Now you all can see how messy the launch was. ...

Mat, You got me thinking about the second stage in a different way. There are hydrogen/oxygen rockets available at the stores that uses electrolysis to split...
Hi Mike, BRILLIANT!!!! Now you've got me thinking. A launch tube on top of the first stage with an O ring to seal the nozzle of the second stage. You could use...
Brown's gas (as generated by this kind of electrolysis) is *very* dangerous, and quite easy to make. Please be very careful, and don't share information too...
Indeed H2 O2 mix is very dangerous. Any time you have a flamable and oxidizer mixed together, the slightest ignition will fire it off. However, the current...
Would a multi-stage water rocket using Brown's gas still be considered for the WR altitude records? Mike No Would I get a dunk record in basketball if I...
... If it uses water as reaction mass, I don't see why not. The gas burns extremely quickly, so you couldn't use it for prolonged thrust, only for instant...
Hello Pitan, Your videos of the flour rockets looked like way too much fun, so we had a go this weekend at our local park as well. Here are some photos and...
