byte sized engineering | World's Most Overengineered Water Rocket! @bytesizedengineering | Uploaded November 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
In this video I set out to build the world's most overengineered water rocket! I used PVC pipe and a soda bottle connected to an air compressor. I machined a locking mechanism out of aluminum and plastic which is driven by a pneumatic actuator. The rocket is launched using radio transceivers capable of working up to 15km away! I had a blast making this project.
New videos are uploaded as soon as I finish them!

As an engineer I spend most of my time problem solving and I think that's an extremely important skill. I have learned that complex problems that may seem impossible at first, can be solved by breaking them down into “byte sized” pieces. I hope that my viewers see my passion and enthusiasm for making things, and that it inspires them to make something that they're excited about.
