Reaction Research Society
Приєднався 12 лют 2013
The Reaction Research Society is the oldest continuously operating amateur rocket group in the United States. Founded in 1943 as a nonprofit civilian organization, its purpose has been to aid in the development of reaction propulsion and to promote interest in this science as well as its applications. The society owns and operates the Mojave Test Area, a 40 acre site located two and a half hours north of Los Angeles. Over the years, thousands of solid, hybrid, and liquid propellant rockets have been static and flight tested.

Three where from the USC RPL group. (I only filmed 2) These where to test propellant characteristics of additives to their basic formula. Chris Lujan's tested a KNO3/Sucrose motor. Richard Garcia also tested a KNO3/Sucrose motor and a gaseous Oxygen/Propane engine. (The buzzing is from check valves not getting enough flow to keep them open continuously. Part way through the burn the exhaust sta...
Testing for combustion of an aqueous solution of potassium nitrate with ethanol

Testing for combustion of an aqueous solution of potassium nitrate with ethanol: I was trying to see if the potassium nitrate will burn with ethanol while in solution. From the looks of the results it does. I'm considering using potassium nitrate in an aqueous solution as a simpler, cheaper, and safer alternative to other common liquid oxidizers used in armature made liquid propellant rocket en...

This was my favorite video :)
👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪
This is realy cool
Wouldn't it be wise to add a cover/filter system above the ones that are active (volcanoes: don't like the idea of colder weather and crappier growing seasons)... *Great record of events... lol
fake it till you make if
I wonder if it was recovered by someone…
Back in the 1970s when I was in high school, I found a book in the library about a very similar rocket development. It was also launched from the same area, was H2O2 powered, failed to ignite the tracking charge, and was not found. I'm thinking now that it was probably the same people. Did you guys write a book?
I'm surprised that even back then, personal protection was so casual regarding H2O2 exposure. I got a tiny drop of 30% on my skin and it sure let me know. I guess when we're young, we're all invincible!
UA-cam recommended really came through this time
I wonder if they took into account the Coriolis effect when trying to find the rockett? Just a thought.
Reminds me of when I lived in Dade County Florida from 1988 to 1995.
👍👍
👍👍
Great film!
How does it not rupture at that impulse? I suppose the containment is some alloy? Incredible!
Absolute pioneering titans. Warms my heart to know what those young kids were up to at a time when few knew such craft and engineering. Thanks for sharing with us.
One of the best liquid fuelled rocket video ever
The title has a 0 and not an O
23,760 ft !!! Without computers !
With a slide ruler ( yeah! I know you don't know what that is) ! I don't know how to use one !
Slide Rule (not ruler). I *do* know how to use one. It's not hard .
Now I want to go find it...
Hol voltam.én akkor még , 40 években a németek élen jártak. Boztos van itt ott történelmi darab.
Awesome! Where's Part 2 of the video?? Was Dave's sounding rocket ever launched? Where's the video of that?
Rolerons are a cool idea, maybe a tiny motor could make them work better? I mean, unles they work fine lol.
Yes amazing never seen it before ... defenetly planing to make pair
Nice. I certainly loved that. I remember my passion for rockets as a kid up till about 10 years ago when my good friend passed away. Things aren't the same without Frank Kosdon. All I know is that money went as fast as rocket motors. Now I see there is cheaper ways to do or always was there but that is why there is a rediscovering of love for rocket motors. Notice I say motors. My rockets were designed around each motor designation. The higher the number the stronger the airframe I was only interested in getting my motor back. Everything else was secondary. Thank you for that. I really enjoyed that. Sincerely "October Skies"😉

Hii
i am in search of the design blueprints it was so awesome
Incredible and inspiring
hello sir How to make high voltage for atttari border 500MV
Wild West Days of Rocket Science. Today is so lame one couldn't do these experiments without going to prison let alone procure the chemicals involved.
Um... all of the chemicals involved are readily available, buy 30% peroxide and boil off the water to make it 90%, you can literally buy potassium permanganate from a chemical supplier in solid form
That will be a big surprise to everyone involved amateur rocketry today, none of whom are in prison due to the hobby, nor are likely to be. But I guess reactionary feels trump facts.
@@techobsessed1 ReaLLY? I'll take a gallon of 95% H2O2 ASAP please :).. Amateur rocket enthusiasts build solid rocket boosters mostly from what I know. I know of one that uses liquids and they don't use HTP and it's a mono-propellant. You can't get it (HTP). Make it, cannot get it. Nitric acid, the white or red fuming stuff is next to impossible to find as well...
Me and my collegiate rocketry group are developing a rocket extremely similar to this. If anyone has any further literature on it, it would be greatly appreciated.
SOMEBODY HAD TOO MUCH TIME ON THEIRS HANDS
As opposed to sitting on a couch with VR googles. Oh fun...
I wonder if the rocket has ever been found and if not, it would be historic for rocketry today. Anyone up for a search?
I was wondering the same thing.
This is really awesome :-)
wonderful quality film making and rocket building, Shame it was lost, but at least you still have this as a record
well that was awesome, and a very well made video
This is an outstanding and interesting video! Would love to see more about the design and calculations, and the practical aspects of building propulsion systems.
Heaan Lasai ikr
you should get a book called Rocket Propulsion Elements by George Sutton
This is the real authentic American guys, who made things in the well know American Spirit, so lovelymovie and great look at the 1950 America in it's glance .Avihou
Wow, so good ol' American boys in this video! Great documentary, impressive results... it was a pleasure to watch!
Lbf?
I think ~250lbf compared to the expected ~600lbf. That motor got kicked back to redesign until further notice. I think that was actually the video I recorded from my phone.
Dave Crisalli -- Good Job , nice work . - Question of curiosity , do you still have that large 6 Channel Chart Recorder that I sold to you back in the very early 1970's ? -- To jog your memory as to who I am ; I was on the Executive Board of RRS , I drove a Red & White Toyota Landcruiser , and I'm the one that built & installed George Dosa's Tracking Platform at the MTA . - < Walt >
That was impressive. The burn done just after the 4 minute mark was flawless. Very smooth startup, a fast transition to full thrust, and,most remarkably, the combustion was as stable and symmetrical as any I've seen in a kerolox engine,large or small.
Amazing. Too bad parachutes weren't invented yet. Oh right, this is '50. It must be very disappointing to lose a working rocket that took such effort, time and materials to put together. Handling 90% peroxide without goggles and face mask, especially when you're the guy standing UNDER the pouring funnel, is just insane by today's standards. Thanks for posting this. The movie documentation was superb and thorough. BTW, where are those young men today?
hi dear friend can you help me to make it?can you send me rocket's motor's plan?? abkhezr.robat@gmail.com thank you
25 years ago or so, didn't someone at the RRS try and do a Beta cluster or a staged micrograin??? I vaguely remember this.... I need to rejoin I think..... :-)
Dave and his trademark hat. Can't miss him! Thanks for the great video!! So happy to see the RRS stepping up its social media game a bit on UA-cam. :-)
Cant forget Daves trademark leather gloves. :D
The RRS and Dave Crisalli in particular continue to inspire a new generation of aerospace engineers and entrepreneurs - myself included. Your work demonstrates the incredible things a small, dedicated team can actually accomplish. Thank you for your continued work and for brilliantly documenting and publishing the efforts of years past.
YES!!!! This was one of the rockets that captured my attention and got me moving towards biprops when I was barely a teenager!! David's work on this blew my mind and still does today. I am designing a 5k motor right now and honestly was thinking about this project and Scott Claflin's(spelling?) big ablative biprop motor that was built and fired....oh gosh, mid to late 90's?? And I see Mity-Mite regulators......I still have two of them NiB in the garage. Very happy to see this project being resurrected. It deserves it.
Absolute legends! Thank you so much for putting this together and uploading it for posterity. David and Lees flight was a pivotal point in amateur rocketry and the history of California's (and our own) history with rocketry. That white rocket is legendary in our circles. :-) Thank you again.
yep California . . today ya can't even buy the glue they used on the AL shell seam!
You all were way ahead of NASA!
@@robozstarrr8930 there is a thriving amateur rocketry community in California today. Go whine about something else, somewhere else.
