    Great video with the basics! Certification is important but it's a funny in a way to me, let me explain: I'm Brazilian, so rocket parts and motors aren't for sale here. There isn't a Tripoli prefecture, so I can't feasibly get a certification. But, I'm in a college rocket team, and we managed to design (everything, including the motor!), build, fly, and recover with no damage a rocket that went slightly below 10k ft last week on Spaceport America Cup. The event demanded everyone to be associated to Tripoli, for their insurance. Here's the funny part: everybody is a Level 0!

    We’ve been over this before. A TWR of 1.00000001 is enough for the rocket to get off the launch pad. The Saturn V had a TWR of about 1.25. You don’t want a huge acceleration: 140 m/s2 is 14 G, which would kill the humans on board. The acceleration increases as fuel is used up and the stage gets lighter, so the rocket has to be designed to keep the acceleration near the end of a stage’s run below the limit. For manned rockets, acceleration is limited to 3-5 G. At the start of the stage’s run, you then end up with a TWR of slightly over 1.

    7:35 Ah, sorry. I see that's a mistake in the graphics there. It's 40,000 Newton-seconds, not 40,000 Newtons. Newton-seconds are a measure of total impulse, or change in momentum. This means that an O-motor can change the momentum of a rocket by 40,000 Newton-seconds. If delivered in one second, that would be an average thrust of 40,000 Newtons, but O-motors typically take five seconds to completely fire, for an average thrust of 8,000 Newtons.

    loved it!! I did my L1 on an H550. It burns for 0.5 seconds and produces 550 newtons of thrust in that short burn time hahaha. My rocket held up great. For my L2, i used the same rocket with a J270 motor and single deploy. However, on the second launch, the motor exploded 2.25 seconds into flight. It separated my booster from the upper airframe, feel 5300 feet and was recovered without a scratch hahaha. Only a broken shock cord :) My L1 and L2 were done with no electronics, however, my L3 we had redundant dual deploy, but my team launched without me and forgot to hook the electronics up so it came in ballistic from 10,000 feet......

    Wow! That sounds like an interesting flight record. I'm glad the L1 went well. Sorry about the L2. CATO's are rare with manufactured motors, but it's very frustrating when it happens. How did you keep your L2 from drifting too far with a single motor deploy? I've been working on an L2 design, but increasingly find a drogue necessary to prevent drift. An L3 sounds like a daunting challenge. Sorry it went ballistic. Good luck getting your L3 certification.

    @@GravitonMedia thanks :) Pick the lowest L2 motor you can find. Thats how you prevent drift. Also add weight to the payload section in open rocket and sim it. I added a couple of bags of black beans to my rocket. Kept it low and slow and the extra weight helps it drift down rather than at an angle. Might land a tad harder, but my rocket was fine The j 270 is a lower end L2 motor, but i still had to walk half a mile to get it. Oh, and if its a slightly windy day, you will have to keep an eye on it. Take binoculars and a ATV if you have one. All in all, my L2 disnt drift very far since it was a low power3d motor and i had a couple bags of black beans in the payload section to add drag and weight.

    @@dovahnok0957 To actually answer your questions: The "permanent" anchors aren't quite as permanent as this video makes them out to be, they would all have actuators capable of increasing or decreasing the pull on the cable to balance any unwanted movement (a small portion of which would probably be tectonic in nature) How you pull a vacuum for that moving mass in the middle, well my preferred solution is a turbomolecular pump, this is essentially impellers moving so fast that they disallow the movement of molecules in one direction altogether. Normally these are quite expensive but actually in the case of a tethered ring we already very conveniently have a very fast moving mass that can act as an impeller of a turbomolecular pump and it's high cost due to friction requirements are mitigated by the magnetic bearing solution. Accelerating the ring is not a trivial matter but it is very much within our current capability. There are already magnets holding onto the rotating ribbon to keep it from flying apart afterall so using them to accelerate the rotation isn't much of a stretch. It is also assumed that solar panels will hang from the ring since they are in prime real estate above any weather making them very reliable and easier to manufacture because no hard protective glass is needed. The project also assumes the energy of the rotating mass in the ring is used as energy storage to supplement the intermittent sources because there really is a LOT of energy there. On the question of the materials needed and their cost I will simply point you to the project atlantis website where you will find an interactive tethered ring simulation for which you can set a great many parameters including the material used and its parameters and cost which will be calculated for you based on the parameters of the ring you set up. Their default uses copper for the electromagnets and carbon fiber for the tethers and the cost is surprisingly bearable even without assuming cost reduction due to high bulk production of the tether.
