A tip to make ur rocket go higher!
Add those ENO powder substance or anything that can react with water and produce high amount of gas(such as panadol soluble) into a bottle fill with 2/4 water.
Close the lid of the bottle quckly with the end connected to a high preasure tire pump.
Then start the pump.
Ur bottle rocket can go up to 6 stories up if ur module really works

Good luck! biggrin.gif

Damn i should open a thread last year when i was making my water rocket! This is a good idea, indeed!!! laugh.gif

I got some tips for u:
-make the rocket's head as sharp as possible and make sure it is not too heavy or not too light. Erm... just heavy enough for ur rocket to fly straight then is enough.
-install 3 big wings for u rocket. Every wing is 120 degree from others. (However, this will make u lose if the day u launch is windy. sweat.gif )
