Hi Fred,
I would like to know if you finally managed to use powder rockets on your Opel Rak, and how you calculated their power regarding the weight and drag of your model... I am looking forward another project quite similar...

Nope, only did a test of the pod with 4 rockets, but on static, not in the glider (just in case!) and never went to test in flight! (even if I finally managed to find a system to fire the rockets remotely :D )
For the weight ratio etc, no ideas! I go with the noise and smoke, like the real one (that ended up in flame after a 15 seconds flight...)
Sound like a fun project for next April!! :D
Fred - Crash and burn... Litteraly! :D

Ok, so maybe you could tell me which rocket you choose to make noise & smoke??? :lol: And where did you find it??? I am really a beginner in this kind of motor/engine...
A+

Fred:
Hey Mat,
Does that mean you have a project that involve flames, noise, smoke, and hopefully a big bang? :D :D
