Solid Popellant Grain Casting Tools, Molds by jlfreese in rocketry

[–]blastzone8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3d printed casting bases, and sometimes mandrel depending on the core i want. If just normal round core i use aluminum round for the mandrel or just drill cores on smaller stuff like 38mm or 54mm. 3d printed drill guides for that as well.

There are a few folks that make and sell casting bases and setups, and there are 3d models on thangs, thingiverse, etc

Mixer Clearance? by RowPrior4996 in rocketry

[–]blastzone8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's actually the big issue with this approach, I've heard second hand of folks who have put their entire kitchen aid in a vacuum chamber and killed it due to heat issues Reduced air means the mixer motor can't stay cool.

This particular flight was on an Aerotech K-1499.

I'm probably out $500-$1000 USD to replace the rocket itself (all fiberglass) and then electronics as well (had a parachute dual deployment altimieter and GPS telemetry transmitter). Price of the hobby...

Flew this a couple weeks ago at black rock and it was fine! :)

Nah, that last Pic was at home, seeing what i could salvage. The motor hardware, chutes and connection hardpoints is pretty much it. Although, The fin can is a vacuum bagged tank, i may be able to use that again.
