It looks extremely complicated but it really isn't, the space below is the payload bay for the components, and it is also really easy to program a delayed servo
I would love to see another perspective of your nose cone, preferably a view of the hinge and/or a view of not the splitting seam but the falling of the half of the nose cone. Could you possibly share another video of this or link some imgur photos for it?
Do you have a part number or a website where I could purchase similar spring loaded hinges, this would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to build and design a nose cone similar to this one.
I intended to launch it but in the uk I found out it is illegal to manufacture rocket motors to the size I required as they are considered IEDs and to buy them you require a licence and they are very expensive
I'm using spring loaded hinges which keep tension on the hook at the top of the farings. When the hook is released, the force from the springs forces the farings open.

@@NextElonMusk sorry for the late reply. The two farings were connected together using a hook as seen at the top. This hook was connected to a piece of elastic which hooked onto the servo creating tension. When the servo rotated, it released the elastic and the hook came out causing the farings to deploy.
Wow, thats beyond cool.🎉🎉🎉

How did you ejected fairings? Can you show me the mechanism?

I think these may be the ones I bought. I attached them with a combinations of screws and super glue but apoxy resin may be better.
Did you 3d print the fairings? I would really like to have a tutorial on this please
Faring is 3D printed out of PETG. I made the cad files myself on solidworks.
@@jamiekay1740 ok thanks
Thats cool! Have you had any successful field tests or flights?
I intended to launch it but in the uk I found out it is illegal to manufacture rocket motors to the size I required as they are considered IEDs and to buy them you require a licence and they are very expensive
Wow, thats is a very advanced system, is it open source project?
No, I designed the system myself.
what type of hinge are you using and how secure is it
I'm using spring loaded hinges which keep tension on the hook at the top of the farings. When the hook is released, the force from the springs forces the farings open.
Also they are attached using a combination of small screws and glue

That's made out of a stereo foam right
Nah, it's 3D printed out of PETG
i want the stl for this
Very slow bro
please give tutoreil HOW PLEASE
probably wont make a tutorial but its controlled with a servo motor connected to an Arduino
@@jamiekay1740 what does the servo do can you show just a little bit I am trying to built this but I am falling
@@jamiekay1740pls make tutorial
@@jamiekay1740so you push button after the burnout to open the parachute
