Make: High-Power Rockets: Construction and Certification for Thousands of Feet and Beyond

by Mike Westerfield

High-Power Rockets is for all the science geeks who look at the moon and try to figure out where Neil Armstrong walked, watch in awe as rockets lift off, and want to fly their own model rockets. Starting with an overview of mid- and high-power rocketry, readers will start out making rockets with F and G engines, and move on up to H engines.

I edited this book.

[Lindsay Smith-Munoz · Rating 3 out of 5]

In the end, it didn't provide the information I need to study for the CAR test. The instructions for contructing a payload sled were a little vague as well. This book wasn't as good as the original Make: Model Rockets. I feel like rather than promise a follow-up "advanced" book, the author could have just included more details about electronics, hybrid motors, motor clusters, igniters etc.
