We’re a university team just getting started with building model rockets, and one of our main goals is to develop an active control system We’re currently debating between using movable fins (canards) or thrust vector control (tvc). I hope this post finds you all soaring high in your rocketry adventures I'm a high school student currently navigating through the fascinating world of water rocketry for my research paper My focus is on the optimization of water rocket fins in terms of their size. For example, this will not be the desired result if the rocket comes out of the pad and after it spins around a bit and stabilizes the angle at which it rotates
How can i determine the correct choice of canards for a rocket going 2 mach It is really difficult to guess how the canards selected with the created program control the rocket. Has anyone attempted a flying model version of the excelsior rocket ship from the recent film, fantastic four Hi, i'm curious is there a recommended ratio of rocket length to diameter for the most efficient design? Aftershock ii has officially become the highest and fastest amateur rocket of all time After a thorough internal review, the.
To post you must either be a member for 30 days and have 20 posts or be a supporting member. Select any part of the rocket and click the cfd button The dialog allows you to set the rocket angle of attack (aoa), and the number of processors you're going to use when running your cfd simulation This creates a solid version of your rocket and places it in a virtual wind tunnel. This version continues the development of a simplified cfd workflow, with some other features thrown in This workbench can be added to freecad using the addon manager
Improved defaults for running cfds directly from rockets (including openrocket and rocksim imports). Hello everyone, i would like to introduce you to a gyroscopic stabilization system which i made.the system is designed to prevent the rocket from rolling I'm currently trying to design a rocket for my l2 certification This will be my first time designing a rocket of my own, using electronics, and recovering with dual deploy As such, i have some questions before i continue This is a 6ft tall rocket with a 3.9 quantum airframe.
I already did the first launch and it turned out exactly as the simulation in openrocket I am getting ready for my second launch and i would like to know a little about the stability field and what i should aim for. Large and dangerous rocket ships After lighting the rocket motor off without a rocket, and letting it zip and spin in all directions of the school yard, the delay was how long it sat there motionless letting everyone get really up close and personal, before poof And we all have one less year until grey hair It's just how long it coasts until popping.
I'm still new here, and it's a pleasure to meet you all If it's not too much of a bother, i like to get some advice on making a model rocket kit fly higher Like a few general tips that can be used before/during launch Or maybe some slight modifications that can be made to a model rocket.
