too bad it's 900 mhz

Yeah that's pretty cool. I didn't know that anything like that existed for model rocketry. One year for my birthday, I think like 13 or 14, I got three kits, a "regular" plain Jane one, a camera one that took the shot when the chute deployed and one called "The Sidewinder" (it didn't look like the air-air missile) that corkscrewed all the way up (that was my favorite). Now I have an expensive enough hobby I couldn't get back into rocketry for a while, even though I would love to. If I did I definitely would want the voice telemetry unit. Mostly for the cool factor. 🤓😂

@gacekky1 obviously, else 900 mhz wouldn't be an issue.

Yes that was incredible. NASA style😎

Cheers John :)

Cheers. Thanks for that. :)

@@AirCommandRockets You're welcome. Good work in every way. I especially liked the way you integrated the drone footage. Nice. Here's one of mine: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p81yn6p8rrnGlH0.html

Thanks David, Thanks for putting on a great show with your Patriot! :)

It would be fun to put something like that on a water rocket, but it would land before it would have too many things to say. :) I think it is really useful for public events with high altitude flights where the rocket goes out of sight and it reports where in the sky and how far away it is to help people spot it. I believe this unit (Tx and Rx) costs around $2500.

Thanks Paul. Do you still get to fly rockets these days?

Yep. Been working on some new propulsion variants for the last couple of years.

Every loves a Patriot 🙂

At 15 years old they have the hand to eye co-ordination from many years of video games. :)

Thank you!

it definitley is, however it is roughly a 5 hour drive out there (george's son John)

Douglas Rocha É um prazer encontrar outro brasileiro aqui 🇧🇷😆

We actually have 4 locations where we fly on the farmer's property depending on what crops he is growing. He always lets us know the best location.

It all depends on what you want to fly and to what altitude. Here is some more information on that: www.nswrocketry.org.au/Documents/NSWRA_brochure_18.pdf see the second page.

Ha ha, yes the music is meant to cover any shop talk :) But point taken, will try to include more of the discussions in the next video.

Yes they do, just have to find their flights on-line, or contact the individual flyers.

Thanks Willie, and yup, there were a few sub-optimal flights. The supersonic rocket was impressive both on launch and on disassembly. Yes that's John flying the drone, there is no way I'd have the co-ordination to fly the thing and point it where it is supposed to point. It must be many years of handling game controllers. :)

Jip, my lack of ever playing computer games that required good hand-eye coordination is now counting against me! Difficult to teach an old dog new tricks! ;-) ;-)

I think around 615' This one is a little on the heavy side so it doesn't go too high. It was our Level 1 rocket that also flies on solid propellant.

I think it would be fairly tricky in getting all the nozzles synchronized.

For which rockets?

@@AirCommandRockets David's “Patriot” - M2150 and Sam's “Phoenix” - H123

@@joaomanuelmassuira6322 These are just commercial APCP solid propellant motors. Some references: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_perchlorate_composite_propellant and www.csrocketry.com/rocket-motors/cesaroni/motors/pro-75/6g-reloads/cesaroni-m2150-red-lightning-rocket-motor.html

@@AirCommandRockets The solid propellant, do you make or buy it ready to use?

@@joaomanuelmassuira6322 All the motors we use are commercially made in the US and imported into Australia.

Some of these rockets have been around a few years. :)

You can buy these here: www.multitronix.com/ The American version is called Kate. The Australian version is called Lisa.

Which University?

Hi.

Once irritated, I turn off the audio, but then miss the rocket sounds...

Objection noted along with several people now, appreciate the feedback.
