Experimental Rockets

Allot is being done in the lab. Ok it is more like the garage and  in cellar, but there has been some serious improvement in rocket design and technology. I'm talking about custom made rockets, with fiberglass and carbon fiber parts. Also had a successfully stack test with a experimental motor and nozzle. Although there was no gage to measure the thrust out put, I was quite happy with the performance. It was a short, put powerful burn causing the motor to sink half of an inch in already compacted sand.
