[@BPSspace]

HECK YEAH MAN!! Huge congratulations, and I can't wait to see more from ya 🚀

[@ttbaerospace]

Thanks Joe! Such an inspiration

[@talyrath]

Solid engineering skills AND an overall class act. Y'all are BOTH awesome.

[@soldbyscottlamson4575]

I was literally about to tag bpsspace

[@slevinshafel9395]

he/she won you. he/she land it

[@DeltaSpaceSystems]

Congrats on the landing! That was one of the the smoothest full landing tests I’ve ever seen!

[@ttbaerospace]

Thanks so much cole!

[@Crutch_Media]

@@ttbaerospace its seriously impressive that you managed to pull this off without throttle control

[@johnmiller4859]

Excellent work. There are controls engineers who have been in the field for 30 years who couldn't do what you've accomplished. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@ttbaerospace]

Appreciate it!

[@Maxim.Teleguz]

Get him and escalated course to a better future man.

[@user-tk2jy8xr8b]

I'm afraid you're underestimating the complexity and weight of a full-scale launch vehicle. Airplane models can hover with their propeller turned vertically, now try doing that with a real vehicle. Other than that, the work is excellent indeed

[@pd28cat]

@@user-tk2jy8xr8bYou think this guy had a budget of a few million?

[@Sauson_Rashidi]

FACTS

[@russellking747]

This should be a physical test requirement for becoming an aerospace engineer. It shows commitment, attention to detail, patience, understanding of fundamental physics and complex principles and obviously a spark of genius and motivation. Shows what I think of your accomplishments. Keep it going!

[@seantiz]

I have no experience in this arena, but I’m impressed with your analysis, simplification methodology and creative solutions. Well done.

[@ttbaerospace]

Thank you very much!

[@Glenn.Cooper]

Dude you've got a helluva career ahead you. This is AMAZING work and you should be very proud of it.

[@ttbaerospace]

Thank you so much🙏

[@Crutch_Media]

Even smoother than Joey B's scout landing

[@nerokcubreva]

to be fair it is a very similar design

[@Crutch_Media]

@@nerokcubreva there are numerous differences in the design, such as him opting out of any throttle and no dampers in the legs, plus the landing legs have a wider stance than scout and even the internal structure is probably entirely different. they may look similar but the design itself is vastly different

[@nerokcubreva]

@@Crutch_Media yeah, vastly

[@Aaron_b_c]

You make bps space look like such a poser

[@nerokcubreva]

@@Aaron_b_c in what sense?

[@OrionAerospace]

Sheeeeeeesh what a landing! Great analysis and really like the keep it simple design philosophy! Congrats, can't wait to see whats next :)

[@ttbaerospace]

Thank you so much for the inspiration!

[@dammitbobby283]

In the past, when observing older SpaceX failure videos, a common issue often identified was the destabilization caused by the abrupt movements of their landing gear.

[@kentswan3230]

Love it! Pick something hard to do, focus on it, build something, try it out, and puzzle through the things that don't work. Rinse, Wash and Repeat until it works the way you want it to. Great Fun!

[@ttbaerospace]

Exactly! Thanks for the support

[@jannikheidemann3805]

I wouldn't have thought a rocket could be landed with a solid motor which can't be throttled. Thank you for showing me it can be done. Well done and really impressive!

[@wertperch]

This is absolutely astonishing to see! Congratulations on all the progress you've made =] I can't wait to see where you go from here.

[@arro_rockets]

Very cool! Great to see more people achieving this and really pushing model rocketry to its limits!

[@photorealm]

That was a really hard problem to go after and you nailed it. Great job.

[@jozseffabri]

Congratulations! Excellent work, thank you for showing!

[@michaeldiamond2269]

Brilliant. Well done. Landing an RC rocket is not a simple task. Keep up the great work!

[@adamchurvis1]

Young man, you remind me of a young Jim Chamberlin (from the Avro Arrow) in all his brilliance from such an early age. I imagine one day -- and not too far off -- I or my descendants will watch you and the great machines of science you invent and remember you just like you are here. Keep moving forward, and invest in self-discipline. I wish you and yours the very best.

[@ttbaerospace]

I appreciate it!

[@tom95076]

I really enjoy all the information you are covering on your projects. keep up the great work and don't forget to have fun. you are not only making this path for yourself.. think of others who follow or see your stuff. awesome!

[@ttbaerospace]

Will do, thanks for the support!

[@bobhillier921]

Well done! I love your iterative approach… solve one problem at a time.

[@sumner407]

👍👍congratulations, that’s phenomenal. More power to you. Seeing this demo gives me faith in our youth and the future of our country. Keep it up.

[@redstonerocketry]

Massive congrats on such a smooth landing!

[@stevecrabb1]

Excellent work. Keeping stuff simple is really hard.

[@gilperon]

Bpsspace took years for this and you nailed It!!!

[@kevinkipkorir3132]

This is awesome man🎉🎉you and Joe B have really inspired me...just love this

[@NeonDreams7]

Awesome! Thanks for taking us through it and not just the landing!

[@jonclegg9169]

Excellent work. And an excellent job explaining your process!

[@williamlewis8741]

Greetings from France. young man. your aerospace knowledge and skills are stellar. i wish the very best in your career wherever you go. i've watched and continue to watch all of SpaceX's take-offs and landings. back in the day, i toyed with model rockets on the dry lake of Lucerne Valley in California. fun times indeed chasing a rocket and its parachute.

[@tjones99]

GREAT video, awesome project, total success and kudos to @BPSspace for the perfect supportive response!!! Both of you are class acts! This is a fabulous time to be alive and see all this happening!!!

[@ttbaerospace]

Thanks😁

[@slevinshafel9395]

6:10 you nail it. absorption and no boucing. BRAVO!!!!

[@KC-nd7nt]

In awe of your drive and skill level . You will do great things

[@P_double_H]

I appreciate the enormous work you have done with this project. People don't realize how difficult something like landing a rocket actually is. We the humans tend to take things for granted when they work, but we really never tend to appreciate the engineering behind it. Thanks again!

[@ahmadsayed83]

WoW, you made it looks simple and smooth, Incredible engineering

[@LafayetteSystems]

Awesome work! The touchdown was super smooth, very impressive

[@silvaghombard7666]

Impressive! Can't wait to see updates on your progress

[@FactsInSpace]

Incredible landing! Always great to see how the R&D process leads to the final product.

[@somestarman892]

The second person in the world to land a model rocket, and more simple and soft than the first.

[@AirCommandRockets]

Very nicely done! Thanks for sharing all the detailed info.

[@alectrospace]

Huge congratulations! That's one impressive flying (and landing) machine!

[@byteborg]

This is some cool piece of kit you built there! Congrats!

[@deangreenhough3479]

Amazing and I mean amazing progress for such a young man. Congratulations on all the challenges you have faced and mastered.

[@ttbaerospace]

Thanks!

[@edh6096]

Great job! So very impressive! I imagine that in the year 2083, you'll re-watch this video with a mix of amusement and satisfaction, with your grandkids asking you questions, as you sip your tea .... on Mars.

[@michaelashby9654]

Great job. Well explained. Congratulations!

[@clnrrr]

this is really amazing and inspiring. so smooth! big ups to you and to bps space for showing me this is possible

[@9jatechie]

Great job. You really learn fast to learn Kicad, quaternion and implement them in both code and hardware. Well done. You're a great inspiration.

[@ttbaerospace]

Thanks!
