Hey All!

On the upcoming episode of The Anti-Gravity Group Podcast, we're asking for your input for motor selections for both the 12" Punisher and the Double Arcas. Drop them in the comments below, but please read the guidelines first!

Mind you, we want these suggestions to be realistic, so here are some guidelines:

  • Motors must be actually attainable (I know, tall order right now)

  • The O5500 is not currently in budget lol

  • A realistic budget for either rocket is about $3,000 in propellant

  • We don't have a lot of CTI hardware, but we do have a ton of virtually every Aerotech case except for 98s and 75s

  • Get imaginative! Color blending, fun effects, etc. Let us have it!

Please view the image attached for the guidelines for each rocket. Note: at this time, EX motors and the rockets traveling to requested locations are not within the financial equation lol.

Sorry to those who had already commented, but I had to remake the post to make it usable thanks to Patreon butchering the mobile post layout.

Liam

Okay well here we go

Jonathan Gaboury

for the punisher id like to see either super thunder or blue thunder. so, an M6000, 3 L2775's and 3 K1800's. for blue thunder, M2500 and 6 L1520s. for the arcas I agree with what you guys said in a previous episode about mixing colors. i think you guys should do a M1600 and 6 K1100s

Liam

Okay for the punisher I think you should do a big long burning P motor running on Bryce chanes methalox than do the six surrounding motors as M2020s with white smoke prop and then do this specific lighting. So light four of the M2020 motors than when they burn out light the last two M2020s and when they burn out light the massive P motor and let her rip.

Liam

Thanks for clarifying I had a very ummm confusing suggestion because it was a mix of both requirements

Liam

We should rename the Punisher the 12 inch shark. And then five it the paint job of the Delta 2 when it carried GPS sats.

Jeff Curtis

The first Roller Coaster I ever road was The Beast at Kings Island outside of Cincinnati, I think The Beast would be an excellent name for the 12" Punisher.

Eric Beavers

So for the Punisher a N3300 and 6 L1420. Close enough to 3K to call it 3K. Like 2% P. Then it gets to fly with best propellant.

Justin Gleiter

For the Punisher: Ground start 3-L2775’s and 3- K1800’s, then air start an N2000.

Michael Grayless

For the Punisher 3 M2050s and 3 L 1940s and a long burn 98. I also vote for doing an all blue thunder or Super thunder load out.

Doug

I suggest the "Might D" engine

Neutronium

One thing that would be really cool would be to fly one or both of them at LDRS. That would require a total impulse less than a full N. Maybe something like an all Super Thunder load for the Arcas with a M4500, 4x K2050, and 4x H550.

Noah Lenihan

For the punisher you could have a central M6000 and air start 3 M650s and 3 M2225s

Bryce

Can you clarify the no EX rule? The financial statement makes sense for travel, but the cost savings from EX would practically pay for gas to and from basically any venue in the US. Maybe 2026 will be the EX year.

Rocket Vlogs

Inherently higher risk of losing the rocket, is all. A full load of 7 or 9 EX motors going wrong could easily erase those savings in the form of needing another rocket lol. The Arcas is much cheaper and we'd likely consider that before the Punisher. We just don't want to lose our child lol

Bryce

I’ll make this comment in January of 2025. I hope this isn’t the year you have a commercial CATO on any of your big projects.

Rocket Vlogs

Same. I hope it also isn't the year we can't get the motors we want to fly the big projects lol.

Andrew

Flying the punisher on a central M4500 or M6000 and six outboard L900DM or L1250DM would be so sick. Only thing is dark matter is so hit or miss

Matt Poker

Shockwave would be a great name for the 12" Punisher. It was a sick rollercoaster at six flags great America. The logo for the ride would look ridiculously good on a rocket. Too bad they got rid of it in 2002, it was a beast.
