We've updated our main website with the latest launch day report here:

Included are pictures from the day and a couple of videos. We also discuss the new mini video camera we bought to replace the broken FCO2, and additional thermal testing we did on black Tornado couplings.

You have some great video there George.
Sorry about the launch pad explosion. Reminds me of my last launch....er...non launch for that matter.
Hi Ed,
Although disappointing the occasional explosion is a good way to remind yourself that water rocketry isn't as innocent as it appears.
Good luck with your builds/rebuilds! :)
hi! we are matteo and lorenzo, we are from the little repubblic of San Marino.
Thank you for the website!

we are sorry for our bad english!
have you any counsel for us?
Hi Matteo and Lorenzo. That was a very good flight! What do you use for deploying your parachute?
My advice is don't be afraid to try various designs for your water rockets, and pay careful attention to the things that work and the things that don't. Learn from those and improve your rockets that way.
Most of all have fun doing it and stay safe.
We use the noaa technique because the flight computer is too difficult to build.
