motor formulas

Right, an argument should contain premises that support the argument.

If the premises support the arguement, even if the premises are wrong, the argument is valid.

if the premises are correct, then the argument is not only valid, but sound.

good is a value judgement, and morning is a vague term.

Perhapes we should be using ,

"I hope you have a beneficial time period before mid day"

Not necessarily.

argument is valid.

No it isn't.

No it isn't!

But that was never 5 minutes!

Well Jerry, you could always mail him the information labeled as "model airplane parts" or in this case, "model airplane plans"..(:-) Who's your daddy??

Tony, now you know why rocketry is such a small hobby! Do be careful, but here are some resources.

2) There is some discussion of experimental propellants in the appropriate forum at:

6) Several people put on classes on making composite propellant. Two I am aware of are:

This should help you get some information and learn more. Making propellant is not something to be done casually (mistakes have consequences) nor is it all that hard to do right. And I will either get a lot of grief for giving you some direction, or the others will skip right over this and keep spewing among themselves.

Good luck.

argument is valid.

Yes it was!

This is a good answer.

Must confess I didn't understand that the questioner was asking for propellant formulations. I am a little disturbed by the implication that a recipe for propellant equals the secret of a rocket. Nevertheless, there is no reason to respond rudely to an honest question. (As I regret I have done many times in the past.)

Of course the usual disclaimers apply, including

2) Void where prohibited.

Honestly, join a club. That is the absolute best advice. Join a local rocketry club and fly with them for a while and get certified. 50 miles one way isn't too far of a drive, since I usually drive at least 80 one way to go launch with my local club. Go to

There is a reason why people are so tough and why people aren't just willing to volunteer information like that. We don't know who you are, and a couple of quick blurbs doesn't tell us anything other than you are in a hurry and impatient. And since we are trying to protect our hobby, we're not willing to just offer information like that.

SpartaChris - Did you look on the map where he is located? I don't think he has a 50 to 100 mile drive to the nearest club, I think it is more like a 5 to 7 hour drive.

I myslef have driven six hours once to go to the Bong in Wisconsin once. I've driven 8 hours to the Mid West Power.

But my six hours is farther away from you even.

I take it you are in upper MI ?

Yes it is.

PLEASE CITE otherwise ;)

argument is valid.

I don't have to, the five minutes is up!

Man, I am telling you now, go JOIN A CLUB, and GET A MENTOR. APCP is energetic stuff, and you can and will hurt someone if you don't know exactly what you are doing.

Join Tripoli and get certified. You will save zero money making hobby level motors. The equipment and supplies will cost you a ton, and you will only save $$ if you are making larger size motors. And that requires certification.

If you have no club nearby, where do you plan to fly these motors that you want to make? Are you aware that you need a waiver to fly any rocket that weighs over 1500 grams, and/or contains more than 125 grams of propellant?

Not following the laws of the land and the safety rules of common sense is doing yourself and the rocketry community a big dis-service.

Drive the 6 hours, meet the people that are already doing what you want to do, and find out who in that group lives closer to you. Partner up with them, and maybe you can carpool to the launches. Believe me, IT IS WORTH IT, just to save yourself from hurting yourself, or worse, someone else!

I'd advise you to learn how to spell advice!!

If you're the Tony semenuk, I know, your azz is grazz.
