This tutorial shows techniques that are not invented by us. We want to say thank you to all members of the water rocket community who made it possible to build water rockets like that, thanks to their creativity and great ideas. We want to honor the minds behind this ideas and have created an area at our tutorial section at our website with a list of references.
A huge thank you goes to George from AirCommandRockets, who does not only build fantastic rockets but also helped us with optimizing the english version of this tutorial. Check out AirCommandRockets' KZbin channel:

SAFETY GUIDELINES AND DISCLAIMER:
To succeed with the construction of a water rocket, you will have to work very precisely and carefully. Especially some of the adhesives and resins are pretty dangerous. Thus, please wear gloves when working with adhesive or epoxy and don‘t breathe in the gases. It is recommended to work outside whenever toxic gases could develop. The launch of a water rocket may needs permission from the competent authority, depending on your location. You need the permission of the landowner if you launch on foreign territory. Please wear safety goggles when pressure testing or launching your rocket. Keep a safe distance to the pressurized rocket.

Needed new science experiments for the kiddos during Coronavirus lock down. Thanks guys!

[@jaxshane6746]

sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I love any tips you can offer me!

[@malikbodie475]

@Jax Shane instablaster =)

[@jaxshane6746]

@Malik Bodie thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@jaxshane6746]

@Malik Bodie It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass !

[@malikbodie475]

@Jax Shane You are welcome :D

[@plane_spotter_italy]

I used it and it works perfectly thanks so much!!!

[@AirCommandRockets]

Very nice video guys, also very clear an simple instructions for a deployment mechanism. :)

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

Thanks a lot, George! :)

[@OutboardAdvice]

Best video there is. Good job, thanks.

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

Thank you for your nice words! :)

[@teamlucrockets]

Good work guys. It's a well explained video how we can build a simple , light and reliable recovery system. Well done.

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

Thank you! :)

[@WATERROCKETSCLUB]

Well done! Everything is very detailed, clear and understandable (Everything is clear without translation). I will recommend this video as a manual for the production of water rockets deployment mechanism.

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

Thanks Sergey! :) We plan to add subtitles within the next few days in order to improve the experience for non-English/German watchers. As always, feel free to submit Russian subtitles using the KZbin function if you want. :)

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

Here's the link to submit subtitles: kzbin.info_video?v=1ytCyEreolM&ref=share

[@mrdet]

thank you very much for this very clear video.

[@RaketfuedrocketsDeutschland]

You're welcome! We're happy to see people enjoying our videos and tutorials.

Ez tetszik szimplán mehanikus.Nekem az 555 időzítő is nagyszerűen működik.

[@mohamedshafiq9561]

Here's a tip . If you want to find the radius of the circle i.e the bottle just take a string and loop it around the bottle than measure the string you now you got the (circumference) next is dividing the (circumference with Pie (3.14) = (diameter) than just devide the diameter with 2 and voila radius. Pay attention in math everyone. (There might be an easier way)

[@xenon5]

Thanks for the video :) I will probably use this system in my hybrid rocket engine powered rocket. I tried testing electronic timer based on Arduino, but it is not very reliable
