Design Assistant Spreadsheet - HDAS - By Todd Moore - Sky Ripper
Systems.
I started this spreadsheet in order to accomplish two things. One,
was to better understand the math involved in designing hybrids
motors, the other was to create a primarily english units design
assistant.

This site is designed principally as an information resource for
people to find out more about UK non-professional rocketry, especially
for information on hybrid rocket motors, and electronics and payloads.
The website has been running since 1996 in its first incarnation,
and has slowly expanded since that time.

Rocketry Web Site
Amateur Experimental Rocketry
is, in my humble opinion, one of the most challenging, educational
and exciting hobbies! Unlike Model Rocketry or High Power Rocketry,
experimental rocketry is an activity whereby rockets are designed
and constructed entirely from "scratch" -- including motor
and propellant. No significant components are commercially manufactured.
The goal of Amateur Experimental Rocketry (AER), often simply referred
to as Amateur Rocketry or Experimental Rocketry, is to design, build,
test and launch rockets.
Dan Pollino's Inverse
Engineering
Inverse Engineering is a way of building rockets that has developed
from my inability to comprehend complex math or physics. Due to
this limitation, most of my rocket designs are derived from trial
and error. It is the opposite, or inverse way, of the way they should
be built
Sub Orbital Rocket, Amateur
Class (SORAC)
The SORAC Project was
initiated in 1995 as a Civil Experimental Aerospace endeavor. The
first goal is to place a totally non-government funded vehicle into
internationally recognized space, 62 statute miles straight up.

Hybriddyne Forum - The
High Altitude Hybrid Project was created to build hybrid rocket
vehicles and, specifically, to challenge a 100,000 foot flight of
an 8 inch diameter vehicle. It is now open to those who would like
to participate by means of financial support and working on the
various components necessary to achieve this goal. This is an opportunity
to gain and share knowledge with some of the most experienced people
in experimental rocketry and become part of it's history.

Evan Daniel's The
Art of the All-PVC Amateur Hybrid Rocket Engine
For some time now, I've been trying to find an inexpensive, reliable
way to launch and debug experimental rocket electronics. After reading
Alberto Gassol's work on PVC hybrid engines, I decided to investigate
that route. My goal was to create a motor that cost less than $10
to fly, with less than half an hour of labor per reload. After some
experimentation, I believe I have met that goal, with an all-PVC
hybrid that costs under $10 for the tank and about $5 for a reload.
