finally someone builds one of these that does the whole launch sequence... even had the mains start before the SRB's. never seen one do the actual SRB sep and then the tank sep... well done fella's, well done.

Unlike the SRBs, which get the shuttle up to a certain speed, the ET is literally a massive fuel tank meant to keep the orbiter fueled for the majority of its ascent. Fun fact, it actually feeds the engines a different fuel than what the orbiter actually stores in its internal fuel reserves.

Actually, there's nothing slow about real rockets. They just look slow because of their size. The Saturn V, for instance, hit 125 in 5 seconds, 250 in 10 seconds and 750 in 30 seconds. But you're right that this launch looked more realistic because the scale speed of most hobby rockets is way faster than large-scale rockets.

i have to say, that is THE COOLEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. i love model rockets and know i love this even more!

Kudos to the team, especially the pilot and the cameraman!

I buildt rockets myself when I was 14, some of them flew up more than 100 Meters. The (slow!) start of this Space Shuttle is the most demanding challenge - any tiny little disharmony in the Shuttle's rockets, and the whole thing will go anywhere. It is really nice to see it working, in fact the slow beginning is a miracle. Next time you fly you may land a little bit closer, so we can see the Shuttle in larger scale. Thank you for such highlight!

Out freaking standing! Love the SRB separation and the roll. Main tank staying strapped to the shuttle is perfect. All in all this was truly excellent work. I agree with the below comment , the music could have een lived without. Oh well, that's the only bad thing about this video.

OMG, this is so cool, it even break's apart like a Real space ship shuttle, Absolutely Love It ❤️💯
