I stand by my assertion that they are completely useless but it was still fun to try out!

Exactly, it was the same story with the Gyrojet:hectmarr wrote:In my opinion, this type of projectile needs time to accelerate, because when it leaves the canyon, the initial velocity is low, and as time passes, it increases rapidly.
My favorite variant of this kinetic rocket concept on a slightly larger scale is LOSATRather than inert bullets, Gyrojets fire small rockets called Microjets which have little recoil and do not require a heavy barrel or chamber to resist the pressure of the combustion gases. Velocity on leaving the tube was very low, but increased to around 1,250 feet per second (380 m/s) at 30 feet (9.1 m). The result is a very lightweight weapon.

I could try adding water, to increase the mass ejected, and therefore, the thrust.Anatine Duo wrote:When I tried this I had similar results. I tried adding mass to the nose, tried some poorly made fins, and I think my long barrel helped, but never got more than 150 feet (measuring straight... projectile often covered much more than that in various directions)
Perhaps with enough mass on the nose and a long enough barrel the co2 will be expended before leaving the muzzle.
The other option is to open a larger hole. I used a spring loaded spike but perhaps a guillotine style is the way to go...
Or maybe flash heating muhahahahaha!

A beauty of work. Collect everything you need: danger, your body involved, and pressure!mrfoo wrote:A miniature version of my friend Anders' rocket kick?
