A fantastic award winning package! 
Designed to give you all details concerning the design of solid propellant rocket motors in simple to follow steps. Information given on formulating, mixing, and casting composite propellant easily, quickly and safely. The composite propellant used in the motors is low in cost and has been refined from formulations used by NASA and the U.S. Air Force. Package includes VHS video (1 hour long) covering all aspects in the book. To further enhance the book/video, 6 software programs (IBM PC Windows 3.1 or better) are included covering flame temperature, thermochemistry, motor burnrate, thrust and chamber pressure for any propellant combination you choose. In addition, all aspects of rocket construction are covered for integrating the motors into rocket casings and launching!

The package will explain in detail: 
1) How to formulate composite propellant
2) How to mix and cast the propellant without vacuum equipment
3) Designing the propellant grain pattern for desired thrust
4) Constructing the nozzle, bulkhead, chamber and delay charge
5) How to make different size motors
6) Low-cost materials required for casin and nozzle construction

Complete assembly information: 
1) Designing and building the rocket
2) Drag coefficients, fin size and stability
3) Sizing the parachute and ejection charge
4) Launch pad and igntion control construction
5) How to make your own igniters
6) How to pack and fold your parachute
7) lots more!!

With this package, you will learn all the aspects of making solid composite rocket motors and incorporating them into all your rocket designs!
