Integrated Propulsion System Update – April 29, 2017

Today two small solid rocket motors were manufactured.  These motors will be used for initial proof of concept ground testing (Hyb-A-1). The purpose of this initial testing is to gain basic skills and knowledge associated with handling N2O and paraffin by demonstrating the combustion reaction between this oxidizer and fuel.

Integrated Propulsion System Kickoff

This weekend we met to kickoff our integrated propulsion system research program to demonstrate that a small 4-seater rocket plane can take off and land on a runway as safely and reliably as a jet aircraft. This research and development program is the foundation for confirming the jet and rocket engine configuration which can later be scaled …
