The system should also eventually allow a model rocket to land vertically under thrust, like the Falcon 9, using a second smaller rocket motor.
The title is a little clickbaity. Landing is not yet possible and it even says so in the article.
- Koshkin 8y ago"eventually"
- reificator 8y agoSure but the title says "Now Available".
- rbanffy 8y agoMy bad. I should have changed the title. In any case, landing with an engine that can't be throttled down (as most model rockets use), only vectored, will be remarkably challenging unless you can vector it to zero vertical thrust (which I doubt from seeing the components).
- wongarsu 8y agoThe title literally claims it's available now. That's beyond clickbait.
