David thought it would be a good idea to try the Rocket jump car again. Johanna is sceptical but very supportive.
What if you need to jump something with your car but don’t have a ramp? Let us introduce the next invention that will change the automotive industry! Soon everyone will have a rocket jump kit fitted to their car and easily jump over bridges that aren’t finished yet, police blockades and even up to the top floor of car parks.
The Rocket Jump RC car is a 1:10 scale HobbyKing Desert Fox RC car. The rocket used is the same as in the Rocket knife series. Providing 54kg (120lbs) of thrust for 0.4 seconds.
The car weighs about 3kg so you can imagine the results.
Everything goes exactly to plan right up until the actual experiment.
Enjoy!
