In this video we will be describing trials of our second 3D printed light anti armor rocket launcher. We discuss what lessons we've learned, what went wrong and what went right, as well as the function of these rockets.

    Print at 45° for non shear strength. (45° layer lines are not perpendicular with linear or 90° shear forces)

    I had the thought while watching, instead of printing the nose cones in 100% infill. Print the nose cone w/ most of the cone solid(base layers) and the tip being hollow so when impacting the target the point crushes. I think this would create a harder impact and the solid base able to transfer the force.

    Excited to see how this turns out! Make sure to scrub the files well so MIB don't take it down, seen too many launcher builds get dissapeared over the past few months

    Welcome to the watchlist, everyone

    sweet guys! been following for a while now cant wait until this gets a public release. also maybe you guys should start thinking about 3d printing molds for your pieces instead of 3d printing the parts themselves. you can then inject these molds with high tensile liquid polymer like some sort of silicone or resin.

    Use tungsten carbide ball bearings, I think those are the heaviest you can get

    Is the rocket motor still accelerating the projectile at the moment the projectile hits the plywood? Maybe the still-accelerating-motor's forward force is strong enough to counteract the backwards force imparted on the detonator at the moment the projectile hits the plywood? Have you tried shooting the projectile into something that won't break (big piece of metal)?

    You guys must have plot armor or some really incriminating shit on the youtube execs, anyone else with this kind of content would be branded the antichrist by the almighty YT algorithm, well done
  • @osgoodblack6464
    any chance you are accepting beta testers or have a odysee page for the 3d files?

    I read that most anti armor weapons use short action rocket motors that burn stupidly fast (in milliseconds). Increasing the burn rate might help accuracy (and velocity), but plastic is not the ideal material.
  • @steverajemann1725
    What Rocketmotor do you use? and how does the motor in the rocket launcher ignite when there is only a methanol explosion?
