Cluster launcher

I have finished my own cluster launcher. It takes me a lot of hours to build it, but now it is finished, the Aurora water rocket is almost ready and probably it will be launched this weekend.



This launcher is very similar to the launcher developed by the Air Command Rockets team, but with some changes. In the future, I will put extras on it.

The launcher got two non return valves for abort the launch if we got problems and also got ajustable feet for sloping ground or for point the rocket into the wind.




The nozzle sit for the boosters are made of 3/4" threaded garden conectors without the spring, the locking tabs and the collar. It also got epoxyed 8mm aluminium tubes where the 9mm nozzle of the boosters slides on. These nozzle sits are conected to the tubes that go to the air supply.



This is the the image of the tubes that leave the air supply.
