Kato, zis is Inspector Clouseau, where are you. 😂 Did he git his level 3 this time?🤔👋
THAT WAS AWESOME! probably not what was meant to happen hehe
Damn...... That really sucks. 😞
Curious what motor this was and if the failure mode was ever known?
Curious, did you read the description of the motor?
@@gertnood - i did not. Now I have and my question about failure mode still stands.
@@gertnoodCurious, why does everyone have to be a dick?
@@gertnood Curious, did you enjoy it when your uncle forced you to play with his rocket ?
RIP up scaled Fat Boy. Looked like a grain issue in the propellant. Unless this was a single use motor, how were the gain cases stored? Temperature, humidity, handling with care to avoid micro fractures is key. If you suspect mishandling, check grain cases with a magnifier and visually inspect for fractures.
That was even worse then the first one
Sorry about that.
While watching rc plane crash videos, there is usually hushed silence, it’s painful to watch something crash the has 1000’s of hours and or dollars invested. When rockets go wrong, I often hear chuckles, generally not as big of a loss. That’s not the case here, they have a serious problem with that design.
Oops?
Yikes :(
Ooops ✝️🇺🇸😖
Not good
I knew a guy like that once... never had any kids
