what the heck gets that thing off the ground & whats it made of ?

Pretty much the same propellant formula that Thiokol puts in the shuttle boosters. I got ahold of the formula and tweaked it a bit. It uses about 9 # of propellant in the small "M" class motor, and its made out of carbon fiber and epoxy. An "M" class motor puts out about 13,500 newton/seconds of thrust. I have launched this on a "P" class motor before. It will break mach. It's raining for the past couple days, so no photo ops, but it's supposed to be nice this weekend, I'll post more pics.
