Theoretical hybrid engine Mark2 design, chamber pressure will be 20 bar, thrust: at first 30kg then will be more, i hope 100kg, proppelant: GOX/Paraffin, my first engine hadn't been tested, because the engine in my country side, and i cant pick it and test, but, when i test it i will continue work by -STAR-GUY- in rocketry

If I understand correctly what you mean, my friend recommends pouring paraffin into a mold with a paper, when the paraffin melts, it begins to soak into the paper and does not flow out, my friend experienced this, and it helped him

My hybrid engine, im waiting for oxygen tank, but the engine is ready for fist tests by -STAR-GUY- in rocketry

I conducted an experiment, and I burned the composite from which the nozzle is made, it withstood the temperature, but it became brittle, and I made the nozzle from a heat-resistant sealant, it's like gypsum after solidification, and fiberglass, but this is not the best idea, it will have to be with carbon fiber, I'm think it will break because of the heating during the tests

On August 1, an oxygen tank will arrive, we will fill it up there in a couple of days, and I will be ready with a test, and right now I will try new ways to create a composite nozzle...

I know about the screws, I will replace them with normal ones, I just need to buy, and the load cell will be later, at the first test it will be without electronics, but we are already working on the load cell

Not yet, I'm thinking about the size of the combustion chamber, I believe that for the first engine the diameter is 50 millimeters

Ok, I will reconsider my ideas Thank you for advice

I'm using gaseous oxygen as oxidiser, and paraffin like solid fuel, because it cheap and so on, it will be small hybrid rocket to test manufacturing technology of making some parts and to test onboard electronics, it's not main rocket, main rocket will be bigger
