dan999ification Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) oh, what ratio did you choose for the test 50/50 ? and was this on one pound tooling?Surely 90/10 will go up . Cato means: catastrophe at take off, to the hpr guys, or your rocket blows up to us dan. Edited December 14, 2012 by dan999ification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCowPeacock Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 I was using 70:30 SF:BP. Of course I was using a nonstandard mixture for SF, one involving sulfur and 1% RIO catalyst (for total mix, as in the 70:30 fuel was 1% RIO, not just the SF.) And yeah, 1 lb. tooling, except for a 6" tube instead of a 7.5". I doubt the grain was malformed or had cracks, and I doubt it was l not consolidated enough. Density was about 89-94% of theoretical, which is pretty good in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
