Daemos MkII Launch Video (2011-06-28)

This was the 'crunch moment of all my toil, troubles and headaches for this Micro Hybrid. But thats not to say that I did not enjoy every second of it. The Rocket is my scratch built 'Daemos MkII' model rocket (you can't buy this one in the shops). It was powered by my Micro Hybrid rocket motor from Eclipse Rocketry. Using a paper fuel grain and electronic ignition from a standard Estes Electron Beam igniter together with Plastic Igniter Cord and N2O canisters, this rocket soured into the sky.

Lil Husler Micro Hybrid (2011-08-19)

This launch took place on the 13/08/2011 The motor used is a Micro Hybrid rocket motor purchased from eclipserocketry.co.uk The rocket is a Semroc kit available from Modelrockets.co.uk called the 'lil Husler' In order to fire the Micro Hybrid I had to modify the rocket and make my own motor mount. If you require more details send me a message and I will try to help. The ejection did not work. I do not know why as the device (a custom made invention of my own based on anothers circuit diagram) worked during a ground test however I will be retiring the device from service and purchasing something that I know will work in the future. The circuit design used is Dan Pollino's of Inverse Engineering. Check out his book titled 'I Still Have All My Fingers' fulle details can be found within the book and it is fantastically written.
