I've been in this hobby for 30 years, and I'm 33 years old.. your level of building talent is the best I have ever seen Peter.. honestly you are one person I very much wanna meet. I'll teach ya hard core 3d heli flight if interested.. you da man my friend, I enjoy your vids and you have support on its way right now
Hey Peter, I was a javelin gunner many years ago when I was in the regular Army. I think this is freaking incredible! I was never much of a gamer, but it's definitely a gamers weapon complete with 4-way controls. A lot of money for a 21 year old kid to be carrying around too. We were told by the Raytheon guys that came to my unit that the tubes cost 70K apiece and the CLU (command launch unit) was 125K. Anyway, nice work.
I love how all the science youtubers are all so inter-webbed u always see stripol and grant and tbs in each others comments. Its so cool what u guys do keep it up bros!
David Yes. They need to make sure he doesn’t get recruited by North Korea. North KOREA WILL HIRE HIM ASAP. He makes better rockets than the scientists of North Korea.
not only do you have the skills to make all these awesome projects but you have the patience and persistence to keep trying until you nail it. great work!
Absolutely Flawless DIY. This is the first attempt I have seen on The Javelin; congratulations on your success. I can only imagine how much time and energy you put into this. Keep em coming.
PeterSripol It's okay, back when I was building my Lear cockpit and posting the videos I saw plenty hits on my website from "authoritative" sources. Imagine I'm still on a couple lists too ;) Cheers Peter
Andrews RC He mentioned the topic on the 100,000 subscribers video. He said full time job on flite test, no but would probably try for some collabs. Miss him at flite test too ;)
I think he is best on his own...he did not get the visibility he deserved on that show. He is a mad scientist guy that wants his voice heard and I am glad he did what he did. Maybe flight test can pay him for some cameos and possibly use some of the stuff they are trying to sell in a project to cover the business and science side of things.
Peter you are a bad ass.After I watched this video I decided I'm a subscriber for life. You basically recreated a missile and a made a launcher but what made it so special is that it looks like the real McCoy. Love you brother I wish I lived by you because I would try to learn everything I could from you. Your talented Peter. Your faithful subscriber Timothy Schermuly.
Well, the world has a new weapons engineer. You should definetly consider to put a parachute in the top to prevent those crash downs. Also, I think, you might aswell melt your own engines with a bit more power, and, of course scale up the test area. Awesome project up until now, would be pleasing to see more of this!
Feuerwerks FunGE The world has another spoiled kid with a rich daddy and a shed full of CNC gear. Take away the fancy printed shit (which the machine made for him based on a model downloaded from the Internet) and you are left with a cardboard tube containing a model rocket engine, a child's toy stuck together with hot glue. >inb4 u jelly. No, I am saddened that so many consider sticking premade parts together a "genius" activity. Nothing here was designed from scratch or truly self-made, which is why despite the many confused comments "NASA" will not be beating at his door. Although I could be wrong, the tech industry is desperate to recruit more brown people, as we saw when the Muslim boy took apart an alarm clock and stuck it in a suitcase last year, suddenly he is the press darling and "genius inventor." At least this kid is sticking the parts someone else designed or made together on his own, it's a start.
Well, if all of this is so easy, I wanna see your part in this competition. Of course, he MAY not designed the parts himself, but are you sure? Until you show me the templates he used online, I believe in that he designed them all by himself. And of course, a CNC machine makes the job way easier, but you could still cut them yourself, however, why waste that much time? Still it's a considerable amount of technic and dynamics understanding which you are in need of to properly build everything together. If you begrudge him for his money you don't have.... just stop complaining and work for it. Also, the comparison with the muslim inventor kid just isn't fitting, or did PeterSripol ever say he does all this for becoming a job or for any job releated issues or just for fun?
Congrats on the completion of the javelin. Was there a second rocket in there to try and keep it flying? I saw a second burst when it was coming in for a "landing". Thanks for taking the time to video your projects and uploading for all to see.
Good morning Peter, Question for ya. I have a Guinea pig (the plane you designed) not the little animal.... I pretty much learned how to fly RC with it. It was my first plane, that being said it has had a few unscheduled landing and the tips of the wings have gotten a little beat up. My question - How much would the flight characteristics be effected if I was to cut the wings down (wingspan) about 5.5" from the wintips inwards? Thanks in advance for any info on this. Hope your having a good day -Jamie
Hmmm, I think it should actually fly OK! you may notice a little bit more wing waggle or less aileron control at lower speeds. Other than that it should still perform ok. Also be prepared for a faster flying plane! Hope this helps!
+PeterSripol Faster plane, I won't be complaining about that. If I get any noticeable waggle I might try some wing fences or winglets. I'll keep you posted. I'm headed out now to give the guinea pig a final few flights with the original wing. Tonight the chopping/modification will commence! Thanks for the information. Have a good day! Jamie
'Hats off to you guys! Awesome inspiration for a whole 'nother generation coming behind you...maybe even a bunch of "grey-heads" like me, as well. My only advice: never stop when you're on a roll! Keep rollin', boys...keep on rollin'!
I just watched some of your stuff on FliteTest and of course all the plane builds were great.... But the humor you infuse into your personal channel makes it way more enjoyable and fun to watch. Keep up the great work!
incredible Mann ! the shot where the first launch gets successful, the feeling was overwhelming ! loved how it soared high up wid so much of control and stability !
I don’t know why. But the shot at 1:57 keeps coming back to me for some reason. The combination of the music, drone , lighting and the memory’s of old peters Chanel keep that shot in my mind all the time.
Pete, I would recommend looking into potassium nitrate sugar rocket motors. For a size to size comparison, they are just as powerful and only cost about 50 cents to make. Grant Thompson has a good video on how to make them. Since they don't have that black powder ejection charge they are also less likely to explode.
Was this the type of motor which was featured in the October Sky movie? I'd think that a rocket motor contained in something more substantial would also be able to be reused and perhaps have a 2nd stage added.
In the October sky movie they used Potassium Chlorate and sugar: It's a rather unstable mixure,the Potassium Chlorate is susceptible to explode in presence of organic fuels.
It's a cool vid but this is same level tech as was available in ww2. V1, fritz x and the like. It's not remotely close to the capability of the real javelin.
lmao at the ending! So that rocket and launcher look pretty real, I'm pretty sure I'd poop myself if I was walking down the street and saw you launching that thing. Have your neighbor's freaked out on you yet? lol
Hahaha, nope not yet. Ive been largely keeping this one away from the roads! But I did actually see a blackhawk fly over the neighborhood and turn away a few minutes after testing this thing.... No joke LOL, I hope its just coincidence.
The black hawk turned away because they don't want any trouble. Merica'! In all seriousness, great build. I could see this being used launching gliders just use three-stage rockets for higher altitude.
I'm always impressed the things you come up with. That you work in a resturaunt and not for NASA with so much talent is strange to me. I particularly enjoyed the explosive ending lol.
I'd just have a spring which is locked back by a sear and then the trigger that fires the motor also releases the sear, so initial launch is spring assisted. More reliable and cheaper. Great job though, the footage is epic. Would love to see this using an arduino IR array (4 IR sensors could give you guidance to control surface) which would make this fire and forget!
You can try adding a small gyro to help stabilize the rocket/aircraft by using a 2-3 inch diameter caged bearing and spin it up with compressed air for about 5-6 seconds. Just place it at the CG of your rocket and ensure the control fins are able to steer the rocket with the added gyro. It won’t require a complete re-design so it should be easy to incorporate.
I've been in this hobby for 30 years, and I'm 33 years old.. your level of building talent is the best I have ever seen Peter.. honestly you are one person I very much wanna meet.

So impressed. What a gifted man
Revisit this with Grant Thomson's sugar rocket motors. You can create your own motor for less than a 50 cents.
He tried that. But gave up after he realised that the tree stump remover he'd bought didnt contain KNO3. Maybe source some...
Kevin Wang Amazon maybe?
I found some at home depot that had pretty much 93% KNO3
Kevin Wang Spectricide stump remover is almost 100 percent potassium nitrate
A Crustacean that's I was going to say
I like how the rocket lands and nothing happens and then there's an explosion. Love it!
