Geeks build rocket X-Wing
 

Have you seen this yet? It worked for a second or two.

Here is the awesome remix.

Cool fun. But why don't people use tripods (for their camera's)?

I read about it and was following it for a little bit during the build. Then some time passed and I forgot about it. By the time I remembered to go back and see how they were progressing it had already been launched. The funny thing is though, I saw the remixed video before I saw or read anything else about the launch. My reaction was, "Haha! That's a great edit. I wonder how they made the explosion so real.................................... oh."

Oh, well. It was a very noble effort and probably got many people excited about rocketry. Anybody that gets into rocketry needs to be prepared to watch all their money and time go up in flames anyway.

note to self... tripods and multi angles make great test rocket crashes...

love the remix.
