well there has been ideas for a super powerful lazer which would (in theory) drive a solar sail- 41 replies

Holy crap lazer altimeters are expensive could I use a altimeter which uses the pressure? like an aircraft's altimeter? something like this: https://www.amazon.com/JBtek-Barometric-Pressure-Temperature-Altitude/dp/B00UUS12PO/ref=pd_sbs_147_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00UUS12PO&pd_rd_r=YRC5PPGHQWT1D1V8NE64&pd_rd_w=LH56p&pd_rd_wg=Ku5sB&psc=1&refRID=YRC5PPGHQWT1D1V8NE64

NOOOOO! Grammar! why did you fail me

true, but how would you pop the co2 cartridge? A quick little flow chart that I threw together for the program: all velocity's and heights are theoretical, and will be changed

well, using a flight computer (ardruino or something) you could give it a set of perimeters which must be met in order for anything to happen, and once it gets those perimeters, then everything is "unlocked" and the landing sequence starts, I`ve been thinking about two pairs of "A" class engines, so one ignites at "X" ft above the ground, and the second ignites at "X" distance above the ground, and if the speed is above "Z". I was also kind of thinking about having the "waffle maker" airbrakes adjust their AoA to keep the rocket steady using two-four range finders it determine the rockets attitude, and then comparing it to whats on the program, and making the necessary adjustments. So it wont be unguided (what everybody was freaking out about on the other thread)

soo.... I love to launch model rockets... and watch the failures. But anyways, I was thinking about some cool project I could try to do, and I thought of a falcon 9 esque rocket, launching with a "d" class motor (no ejection charge), and using A class motors, which are electronically ignited when certain conditions are met (i.e. alt. of 10ft, speed of 20mph, or something) to land. to keep it stable, it would be using "waffle maker" airbrakes on the way down (the grid type things) which deploy once it reaches periapsis. just a thought!
