back in the 60's I was into these, they were just then coming out with some cool designs and had a lot of scratch building tubes to just go for it. One thing we did was to put larger chutes in our rockets to give them a more gentle descent. It worked very well and saved many a fin from breaking off. I'm almost 70 now and these video's really bring back the memories.

Kids need more of this instead of video games!

Wow I love this video clip. Kids congratulations this is a wonderful launch. Thanks to dad and mom what a energetic encouragement to the kids.

Good job, Dad and thanks to Mom for serving as Flight Operations Director! In the background quietly serving, as all good Management should.

Launching Model Rockets never gets old.. Great job guys!!

Nice launch! I got over 20 flights on my Amazon before breaking a fin, always a nice flight.

A good launch site is as important to this hobby as a well-built rocket and this place is spectacular!

Great flight and a couple of great kids. Keep flying !

That kids going places 🙏

This is great! Not many kids are doing this nowadays. I spent my spare time making rockets when I was 11 or 12 years old. These days, kids are just playing games on smart phones.

Nice! A perfect launch; Gene Kranz would have been proud of his men at the Cape.

This is a great video. I've gotten back into this hobby with my kids and have had to spend the last 3 days explaining to the city what Model Rockets are and how they launch before I'm able to launch mine in a open field. I may just share this video so they can see what these do.

Great flight!!!

Nice looking into these for my boy.

That looks like Montana! Nice launch!! 7 urs ago tho, lol...

Nice launch, keep up the good work.

Look at the sun in this video and then look up "solar power satellite station". 1:38 Very great rocket launch, but also very interesting what the sun is doing. Just made me think of that SPS thing.

It just looks like yesterday guys 👦 pretty cool launch 😊 🚀

I had that same heavy rocket and found it to be really cool with a more powerful engine.

Very Very good launck

How has coppa not killed this video

A 2 delay is for heavier rockets

Beautiful location, where is that? It’s good to get kids involved in anything other than screen time!

Wowwww

Good job

Ola me gustó mucho. Ggagga

Dose it come with the motors

平和☺️

How the Red Hair Banging Rumour got Started about Sputnik! Sputnik and the Runaway Press. Sputnik What really Happen by the inventor~Paul Gibson an American Juvenile Backyard Rocket Scientist! For my first birthday, I got 3 money gifts each about $3,000.00 my blue eye mother said I can spend it on anything I wanted, since I discovered a propellent thruster not the typical rocket fuel that burns at thousands of degrees fahrenheit but at room temperature with enough must to gain space altitude just leaving a white plum of smoke in it wake. I had already made the first PLG Parallel Light Generation or nowadays called laser from other infringements. I wanted to put up a satellite, she said ok, I tried military contractors for help, but they laughed their heads off told me to come back when I'm 18 thought about it was too long of a wait for my ambition. So, I went to 3 different custom toy companies each one would not know the other and just what they were making on this was a top-secret invention! So, one toy company I ask for a fuselage told him the parameters. They came back with some turkey cooking pot that was a big let down for me. Well to my back yard in Sugar House, Zootah a successful launch. Sometime later turmoil rotten stuff happen became an orphan and about 2 years later found myself in Scottsdale, Arizona there with my hands controls repositioned my satellite front yard 2 cars pull up. One identified himself as a marine from Camp Pendleton, California, tracking down the first radio signal from space! The other two news reporters. He then ask what do I have in my hands and what am I'm doing? I answered repositioning my rusty old satellite. Then took a sip of a refreshment drink of Kool-Aid. He screams to the 2 reporters: RUSSIAN OWNED SATELLITE! QUICK GET IT ON RADIO NEWS BROADCAST! That made me burst into a laugh when I was just swallowing choke on the drink spilled down my neck as I wipe my neck with back of my hand I mumble got spit on neck. The marine then screams to the reporters: RUSSIAN OWNED SATELLITE NAMED SPUTNIK QUICK GET IT OUT ON THE NEWS BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS I don't know maybe atomic blast or a war or space aliens..... Two weeks later black limousines pull up in front yard from the Russian Embassy they begin yelling screaming at me. Warmonger! one IDs himself as a KGB Agent pulls his pistol out waves it at me, trying to start WW III, huh, in my country you try this we take you out and tie you to a tree just shoot you no trial and no talk! Well, I began to cry and said why is it so horrible to be accused of a fantastic scientific accomplishment and it's mine, not yours and I told you about the dumb marine who misquoted my words. That cool the hot discussion they left. Sometime later I got a private invite from Khrushchev to visit the Kremlin in Russia to be seen who the new world troublemaker is threatening Russia with WW III and I so did go to Russia for interviews and conferences with him and top generals on my views of starting WW III by new technology first time seen!
