epoxy igniters - final version (2011-11-06)

My final epoxy based igniter formula (although I may add some titanium later on). It is Kno3, epoxy, red iron oxide, and aluminum powder. I think they work very well, and they don't use any magnesium powder!

Huge rocket powered by an N3800 (2011-11-06)

This rocket was launched at Three Oaks. It was actually the first N3800 flown in MI. The boost was perfect, but the apogee charge didn't fire. When the main chute fired, it was going so fast it shreaded the parachute. I didn't get this on video, but I can tell you, it was so loud it sounded like thunder.
