DEVLOG 3: MY ROCKET IS STABLE NOW (I hope so at least)
It took me a quite some time, but my prototype is finished now.
What changed?
The rocket is way more stable now and a lot smaller than before. Also, I’ve also done proper research for a rocket motor I can use and how to actually build it into the rocket.
It uses a G-Class Motor, which is quite strong. If I didnt use a board computer and made the rocket even smaller, I couldve reached way higher altitudes.
But It is what it is 
Stability
As I already said, THE ROCKET IS MORE STABLE.
The goal stability of a rocket this 1-2 calibers.
My rocket has a stability of 1.36 calibers, which is stable enough 😎
Altitude
The rocket reaches an altitude of around 96 meters!!! That’s actually really close the the max limit it is allowed to travel (laws
).
Oh, and in freedom units its like 54,8571428571 Bananas
or 300 feet 🦶.
Whats next?
Next, I will need to:
Make the 3D Models of:
- The Centering Rings
- The Fins
- The Nose Cone
Build the Electronics and Code for:
- The Flight Controller
- The Camera
Sew and Calculate:
- The Parachute
AND I ALSO NEED TO WAIT UNTIL 2 MORE PARTS ARE IN STOCK AT ONE OF THE ONLY MODEL ROCKETRY VENDORS IN GERMANY GRRRR
