Onboard video of an Estes model rocket launch (and crash). Filmed with a modified "CVS One-Time-Use Video Camcorder".

Perfect launch of a beautiful rocket.

This is one of the two successful flights of an Estes Saturn VI built in the early '90s. The next flight after this was in San Diego...the rocket was destroyed :-(

My own design, notice the wings - all comes back in one piece - of a 5 stage rocket, each stage on a 'D' black powder motor. Filmed in the late nineties. Using quickmatch to ignite each stage. This is the Falcon 4. You can hear each stage fire. The camera zoomed in as it followed it up, so it went very high, higher than it looks. Reached 1 mile in altitude according to Alticalc estimates, and I recovered it ok - Laurie Calvert. www.calvertfilm.fsnet.co.uk The engines were taped together in ...

This is Steve Eve's 36ft 1600lb 1/10 scale "miniature" Saturn V rocket launch earlier today, commemorating the 40th anniversary of the first landing on the moon. The rocket was lofted by eight 13000ns N-Class motors and a 77000ns P-Class motor generating around 8000lbs of thrust! The launch was a huge success and put it in the Guiness Book of World Records as the largest model rocket ever flown! Congrats to Steve and the team!!!

Presented is the Mighty Saturn V rocket created with simple household items. Its carried by 3 Estes class E engines and hit a height around 1000 ft. Amazingly without a recovery system, the rocket returned down with minimal damage.

Watch the simultaneous launch of 965 (of 1000) model rockets to set the Guinness Book World record. The launch took place on the morning of 5/12/07 at The Travis County Expo Center in Austin Texas. The record and event was the brainchild of Cub Scout Pack 990 and Boy Scout Troop 990. Watch for the rocket on the left that struck the stage 6 feet behind me. This launch shattered the previous record by literally hundreds of rockets. "Electric matches" were used in place of standard igniters to ...

We placed an m-1000 inside a model rocket and lit the fuse, then shot the rocket. people from surrounding neighborhoods were coming out of their houses from half a mile away afterwards!!!

Expendable model rocket launches from 40" model destroyer and detonates recovery charge in water. The rocket is made of paper and incorporates an Estes rocket engine. Yes, we know it's unsafe and violative of the Model Rocketry Code. So ... don't try this at home, I suppose. (But it's fun.)

Quick tutoria showing how to make a standard model rocket that is inexpensive. I also have modified this rocket for a special project in an upcoming video. More model rocket stuff on my website at: www.stormthecastle.com

Blast off into space! Until we get our chance to travel in space, we build and fly model rockets here on Earth. We are designing a rocket to compete in a model rocket festival in Amarillo, Texas. Our question is: How can we design a rocket that reaches 1600 feet?

This model rocket is great for beginners, easy to build and easy to launch. Takes a half an hour and has a parachute recovery and a helicopter style nose cone. Lots more rocket stuff on my website at : www.stormthecastle.com

Lightstorm 2 (see other YouTube) retired undeafeated Model Rocket Car champs (2002) with a record that still stands. The next year we raced in Funny cars instead with this car. It came 5th but the other four (above us) were really rocket cars just painted 'funny' - at least Daft Ada was a proper 'Funny'. We got recognised for being sporting though and won the Sportsmanship award for Techno Games 2003 as you can see in this clip - Laurie Calvert. More info at www.calvertfilm.fsnet.co.uk I am ...

Years ago we used to occasionally launch rockets on our lunch hour at work. We called it a "lunch launch". On this particular Spring day in 1991 we had a good crowd gathered, and several rockets prepared for launch. Some of the rockets had "special" payloads in them to add to the interest. This video shows what happened to one of the rockets. It too had a "special" payload. It went up fine, but the ejection charge did not deploy the parachute or "special" payload. Instead the rocket ...

How to build and fly a model rocket

This is a fast little rocket that flies over 500 meters into the air. This video shows the launch and assembly. Great little model rocket for beginners who want to build a complete rocket that flies real high and real fast.

While still a young guy in the late 1960s and early 70s, one of my hobbies was building & launching model rockets. We'd build & paint them, then launch them on the weekends. Here a group of us gathered at the home of a friend near Rochester, NY and spent an afternoon launching our latest Estes rockets. One of my experimental models went up only 10 ft before it hit the ground and then popped the parachute! I filmed this day with my 16mm Bolex movie camera on silent black & white film. I ...

Following up on the success of the Saturn V rocket, the Gemini rocket is presented using the same priciples taken from the Saturn. Cluster of 3 Estes E engines, over five feet tall.
