Greetings Thread

Hello all, I'm Scott,

Ive recently joined NAR (and here obviously) with my interest in rocketry reaching something of a crescendo.

I'm currently in the design stages of an experimental rocket that in its current state will be powered by a pressure fed, Propane/N2O motor and have a primitive flap guidance to keep it flying in a straight line. I look forward to seeing/talking to you all as the project commences.

Hello,

I was going to pressurize the propane tank with N2. Now the decision I've been wrestling with is whether to complicate a system (that I really don't want to complicate any more than absolutely necessary) by adding a third tank designated for N2 that feeds into the fuel tank or pressurize the tank directly with N2, which has its own set of problems. Careful jet selection should be able to get the stoichiometric fuel/oxidizer ratio right.

This is an extreme longterm project that probably won't see a wet run let alone a working rocket for year(s).
