Balls 2006 Scale Engine Test
Submitted by tripoli on Sat, 01/14/2006 - 20:55.
Dave conducted the first (of probably many) scale engine test. This test used a 54mm engine case with an oak nozzle designed to ablate and reduce nozzle pressure as the propellant burns. The core is Dave's Black propellant in a single C grain. Attached is a must see video of this static test. This video is affectionately titled "The little engine that could".
