Hi all!
I am want to design a hybrid high powered rocket which uses nitrous oxide as
the Oxidizer and 3d printed ABS as fuel. I need help on the design process of
the certain aspects of the rocket such as:
1. What should be appropriate amount of total impulse that I should set for
the motor? My target altitude is 1km.
1. What size should the airframe be? I am aware of the different sizes of
airframes but since I am making a hybrid, I need an airframe that can fit a
solenoid valve that has a pressure rating fit for nitrous operation and can
have a large range of fitting choices.
1. Are there any non-pyrotechnic recovery methods that I can look into?
I do not plan to make this yet, I just want to learn the design process of a
high powered rocket .
