Hyrda-7 launch

The Hyrda-7 rocket with all 7 engines going. Was a successful launch but didn't recover the nose cone or the space man due to them landing in someones backyard :(

California / Vegas Trip

Here are some pictures from my California / Vegas trip in 2010

Cozumel Vacation

Hurray for pictures!

SuperNeon - Launch

My first launch of the SuperNeon ended in disaster as it landed right into a small drainage ditch running along side the property. The engine soaked up all the water and just could not be removed. So being creative, I rigged the side tubes to hold 2 engines, and fashioned tubes on the top to direct the explosion at the end of the rockets life to the main tube (thats what the coke can bits in the picture are for)

Stratus 1 Launch!

The Stratus rocket launched without issues. All in all a very good rocket, has a few more launches in it :)

Hyrda VII Launch

The Hydra VII rocket launched, but with only 3 engines instead of 7.

Hyrda VII - ready to fly


So there it is, finally finished and painted. I'm still pretty bad at painting though. I think I need to stop using acrylic paint and switch to an enamle type paint. I tried painting the outer ring a dark red, but that didn't work out so well. So I tried painting over it with blue, but it is kinda streaky, which sucks.

Stratus1 ready to fly!

Ready to fly this sucker, hopefully it will all work out well :)
