5′ Homemade PVC Missile Part 2
DMarc85 asked:
Documentary on my homemade rocket. I used the same engine making technique you can see here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=O8kG2g8BMJs
More videos to come!
This beast is 5 feet long, and in theory should fly to 2 thousand feet. I’m making it with only simple parts that can be found at home depot and and hobby stores.
This video is part one of many videos that will detail how I made it. The fuel that I’m using is sugar and potassium nitrate. This stuff when mixed together burns furiously and makes a lot hot gas. What I think is funny is that this propellant isn’t even that powerful. If I used a stronger oxidizer like ammonium perchlorate, this freaker would fly about ten times faster and ten times farther. Using simple ingredients and supplies, it is possible to create a very powerful tool, which in the hands of the wrong people, can be used as a weapon of destruction.
I am NOT an anarchist or a terrorist. I just want to humor myself and in the process show everyone how simple it is to create something so powerful. Be safe, respectful of others, and always do the right thing! Enjoy.

Street racing Russian style
RussiaToday asked:
For these people a car is more than just a means of transport. For them, being behind the wheel is a way of life. They spend huge sums fine-tuning and redesigning their motors. They rarely sleep at night. Because only at night are Moscow roads clear enough to accommodate their thrilling but dangerous hobby. Feel the speed and the adrenalin as Moscow street racers wait to step on the gas, in our Street racing, Russian style documentary.
