In this episode, Braden, Matt, Shane, and Taylor are joined by Thomas Booska to discuss building high-performance rockets to exceed Mach 3 and beyond with basic designs, low budgets, and different ways of thinking. Thomas has successfully flown rockets over Mach 3.5 that used very basic building materials that don't cost a whole lot, given the performance. He hopes to exceed hypersonic speeds in the near future. Join us as Thomas talks about how to get Sidewinder speeds with a hobbyist budget.

May 06, 2024Send us a text
In this episode, Taylor, Braden, and Shane (Postart) each bring their own list of tools to get started in rocket building with a budget of $150. These tools are not necessarily needed, as hand sanding and cutting things is always an option. However, these affordable power tools make things much faster and easier.
In addition, we build out our own tier list of 75/5120 Aerotech reload kits and then compare it to the input from the supporters on Patreon! Want to join the conversation? Join the Patreon here:
