stable flight
hopefully
*rocket noises*
nothing
and 3 2 1
they're calling him
the Tony Stark of kitchener ontario
alright so in order to attach the Rockets to my body we're going to need
some kind of mount or holder
so what we're planning on doing is actually kind of making a wrist mount
that I can hang onto and it's got room for three rockets per side and then what
we'll do is we'll also have a kind of like a crunch element a bar that will go
up just in case i can't hold the force of the rockets and then the other thing
we do with that is make sure it's not possible for me to aim the rockets at
myself because we're going to do a few tests later on to see just how powerful
this rocket is and how many layers of Kevlar it will go through
these will for each rocket motor and place we're going to have three rocket
tubes per hand and since these guys put 25 pounds of thrust
that means well the maximum takeoff thrust of a hundred fifty pounds which
is my body weight so hypothetically if i jump
I should jump pretty high and that will be the test but we're gonna start small
start with just one rocket per side
if that goes well with the two if that goes well three
alright so to figure out just how powerful these Rockets are and whether
or not these Kevlar pants are actually save my legs were going to do a quick
test to see if the the rocket plume will actually eat through the Kevlar
all right Brian
three two one two one
yeah
Kevlar pads are not going to get it
alright so the Kepler is just not gonna cut it
it absolutely got incinerated this was actually two layers of Kevlar and as you
can see it burn the wood pretty good so we're going to make pants - actually
with sand is kind of rocket blasts we're gonna need some kind of either metal or
wood insert as well which is going to be tricky because if I'm flying up 10 feet
in the air
I don't want to have bulky pants because my come back down and land
it's not gonna be fun so you might have to go back to the drawing board for this
one
alright so we've got the rocket holder done and our metal crutch
so the next question is where do we want well these guys together and we're
thinking we want to have the arm slightly bent that way with one we don't
want the elbow to lock and to then I'll be able to support with my own strength
and then if that's not enough then engages in to my armpit
so
yeah
alright so because the model rocket engines actually have a bit of a
backfire
you make sure that doesn't have my arms are going to make a little deflector
plate off the steal
yeah
you have our rocket module fleet now I think they just need a coat of paint but
let's see
shit you see my arms are not locked
I'm really wedge into my armpits are nice stable flight hopefully but after
seeing what it did to the Kevlar pants
the safety on this is maybe non-existence so we'll see how it goes
nice threads done what's that some gold access
ok
all right so these feel pretty good now with the padding
now we just have to figure out how to fire off the Rockets simultaneously so
if any of you guys happen to me the model rocket experts and you have some
ideas about how to get these to fire at the same time
please let us know in the comments thanks for watching and stay tuned for
next week
yeah
