Why Do Rockets Have Fins?

[@JecFilms15]

I foumd this channel 3 days ago and im glad i did

[@yukigamine]

Great video! Model rockets are amazing and you should totally do more!

[@matthewjamestaylor]

Great video. That was a great explanation. Wait, don't you still owe me a steak? Cheers.

Amazing channel; great to see so much passion and knowledge. Helped heaps for a science project thanks :)

[@Niqhtmusic]

My teacher gave us this video to study from when we build them ☺️

[@moritzheintze7615]

Good explanation! One thing puzzles me though. Unlike smaller rockets, space launch vehicles do not have fins but totally rely on thrust vector control. *But,* why did the Saturn V have fins? I guess it has more to do with heritage and nostalgia than with function, like the black-and-white square pattern which actually caused thermal concerns.

Great help for my stem class

Simple explanation of deep topic ,you added a new subscriber

[@niceguy5772]

Hey , Now , where do i place the fins , Behind the center of Gravity or ahead of center or Gravity

[@AntonLewise]

Well done bro..

[@faizeleze]

I've just used your video to explain some basic rocket concepts in KSP to fellow reddit user. Thank you! I'm surprised that you have too low likes, sadly. You're doing great! Keep it up :)

Amazing knowlege. Loved it

[@TheRocketN00b]

Nice.

[@sanketsavani5059]

Please more Rocket videos like this

[@Thecooler-op4cs]

Nice it helps a lot.

[@visibility310]

Please make more videos on rocket science😊😊

[@praptisalaskar6281]

good stuff!

When someone says "Finless rocket," I think of two things: Gyrojet ammunition and Hale rockets.

i am using this video for a science project

[@theatomyoulike2881]

I started to build a really big model rocket a year ago, but I didn't finish it. Now I'm quite motivated! Have you seen the email I've sent you?

[@catherineharris4746]

Smart!👍👍👍

What would happen if you made a finless rocket that had the CP lower than the CG (say by adding weight at the front)? Will it fly `true'?

[@DrAlexeyevich]

Never mind. It seems that that is next to impossible to achieve.

[@crank3835]

Building my first rocket on Kerbal and I had to add fins for one of the trainings. Decided to look up why they stabilize a rocket and your video helped :D Thanks! Though, I do have one question, at 0:40 , why does the rocket's upper half rotate right when the wind is hitting it from the right side. This is counter-intuitive, I would think that as the section of the rocket above the C.O.G is bigger the one below, more pressure in that section would cause the upper rocket half to rotate left.

What recovery method should I use? *BALLISTIC TRAJECTORY*

[@fortniteisb0ss649]

Chase!

[@fortniteisb0ss649]

I’m from when you did the great America teach in

[@malayapaul458]

Great , I don't have words to appreciate your videos, I think you should work on the "Rope Coiling Effect " for the next one.

[@lfernandez0810]

as reserch

[@scottdongnguyenkhang2878]

I am the person who just curious about rocket :)

So you can aim it away from you.
