First Pro Pyro Shoot

04 April 2006 - 08:59 PM

I got to do my first pro pyro shoot this last Friday.
Here's a link to the video I shot from the dashboard of my truck.

Nothing like standing next to a 6 incher when it goes off! :D
What a thrill!
Can't wait for the next one!

Thanks to Frozentech for uploading this.

New Rocket

This was a 1 pounder with a 2.5 inch round shell.
Filled with Green Veline's formula stars.
It had BP coated corn husks for burst with .5g flash in the center.
The passfire was 1/8" green visco into the shell with a straw filled
with 80 mesh BP leading to the center.
It acted like an morter once launched! Shot the shell up to about 150 feet!
RP for the propelent, slow BP delay on top, but no bulkhead, then 10 mesh
BP to light the shell fuse, that had slurry primed visco, 1" length outside.
This is the second one that has launched itself, after fireing!
Thoughts?
