    Hello forum. Many things happened during last months: I have learned many lessons, tried and found many solutions (with my patended system TRY-ERROR-JUMP IN AIR-CHANGE-RETRY :D), and finally refined the entire project. I have also invested many moneys to buy all the needed chems and tools to...

    MK's Sugar Rocket - The Fourth Generation - The Hybrid Era

    And now a sugar rocket with a 4" shell attached on the top: 4" Vs 3": The launch: It is incredible the performance of my sugar rocket motor: my engine has lifted a massive 800 grams total weight almost istantly and reached in a few seconds an altitude of about 300 meters! I assure You...

    MK's Sugar Rocket - The Fourth Generation - The Hybrid Era

    Yes, indeed! But this was only a try. I have just learned how to make professional stars and how to create a much more powerful black powder. Next project will be with 4" shells and all the news that I have learned. Since now I want to be called "kim jong un" Jr. :D

    Thanks friend Alaskan! Diachi, many browsers rearrange the photo dimensions to fit the screen. And some browsers has the ability to tune manually the characters and photos sizes (ndependently), and remember which URL pages needs to be redimensioned. For example the browser that I use, Chrome.

    This is my last reply about the question. I have 8113 likes. Yes, not so much comparable to Yours, but I think to be a respectable user. Among this 8113 likes, in 7 years nobody has ever complained about the resolution of my screenshots. This means that in the forum there is a very little...

    MK's Sugar Rocket - The Fourth Generation - The Hybrid Era

    Hey I have a 23" monitor at 1920x1200 and I can see more than one full pic witnout any kind of issue. It depends what resolution You are using (and the size of the monitor of course). Most of users prefer to see a detailed high resolution pic. Resize all the pics of this thread is not a quick...

    MK's Sugar Rocket - The Fourth Generation - The Hybrid Era

    For those kind of rockets bentonite don't work, the inside pressure is too high and the diameter is big, either the nozzle or the cap explodes.

    MK's Sugar Rocket - The Fourth Generation - The Hybrid Era

    Hello forum! In the meanwhile that I, CDBeam and the rest of the staff are ending a new awesome laser monster (and You know me, when I say "monster" is really a monster :D), I have finally ended a new rocket project. This new painful project take me a lot of effort, but it is really a wonder. It...

    Re: "The Trail Blazer" - arrival of the "Zacop 520nm, 1350mW, optically corrected" la Hey .. we want to see the beam with the correction unit and the beam expander mounted :D Please remember that the Linos Variable Magnifications Beam Expander permit to modify not only the focus but also the...

    MK's sugar rockets - the third generation: the Titanium era.

    A quick update: I built and launched the first hybrid rocket prototype with a 3" shell on top of it. Some errors occurred: altitude too high, too much delay before the ignition of the shell, bad shell crack. But hey ... It was a massive 750 grams rocket! The launch was perfect, and now I'm in...

    MK's sugar rockets - the third generation: the Titanium era.

    You are right Benm, this is an almost dangerous hobby. Even when You drive your car there is always a little risk. Every move in ours life is a risk. For example, when You see a girl that smile in Your direction ...:crackup::crackup::crackup:

    SOLD - Zacop 520nm, 1350mW, optically corrected and expanded for sale!

    Hello forum! Today I decided to sell some of my masterpieces (or better, one of the masterpieces created from the cooperation of CDBeam+me myself :beer:). It was a suffered decision, but I need a lot of cash for my next expensive projects, and since I have too many duplicates in my huge...

    MK's sugar rockets - the third generation: the Titanium era.

    Me too Laserbee, but since now I'm unable to find the rests of the rockets .. they disappears in the blue (or dark) sky. :D It is my intention to replace the hard PVC with aluminum: the price and the weight of an aluminum bar is not too far from the price of a PVC bar with the same...

    MK's sugar rockets - the third generation: the Titanium era.

    Hello forum. I'm very proud to introduce You my last creation: a massive 450+ grams rocket with titanium sponge and hard PVC head + nozzle. I have done many fails before to refine my new rocket motor, because it is not so simple to lift so much weight almost instantly without a CATO. Well, here...

    MK's Sugar Rockets - The Next Generation!

    Hey, this was my first attempt to build a pyro fountain, and was a success !! As support platform I used a nice orgonic device that I have built some years ago: The fountain build method is very similar to the one used for my rockets (Titanium apart). The traditional 4 cores 3mm fuse was...

    MK's Sugar Rockets - The Next Generation!

    Ehmmm ... it was my intention to lock a drone at a certain altitude with GPS control, ignite a rocket far away with a collimated laser beam and record the launch with a drone. It is doable and it is among my next projects. It seems you already know my projects in advance :D:D:D
