    In the video:

    • First clip is the electrolysis process, inside the bottle (our 2nd gen. electrolyser)
    • Next is the external ignition test
    • Then the launch. This part kicks ass.
    • What you see floating down is a little cardboard parachute module that my brother made. Just for kicks, I guess


    Enjoy! it's pretty cool to see how much we've progressed in only a day as far a designing goes.
    Woo!! you learned fast!!

    Are you the guy in the video???

    Mightyme:

    Ten eerste, welkom op UCP !!! Ten tweede, wij laten hier meestal topic's die al een langere tijd geen replies gehad hebben een zachte dood sterven. Het is een ongeschreven regel eigenlijk, dat wij er alleen in posten als we nuttige informatie hebben, nieuwe foto's o.i.d. Enjoy your time spent out here and greetings from a fellow Dutchie
