How do you make a rocket model?

Normally model rockets are made from kits you buy at a hobby store. The most famous maker of model rocket kits is a company named Estes. Visit links below. The other option is to build it from scratch. One great way to build from scratch is to purchase the Designer's Special from Estes. It contains an assortment of body tubes, nose cones, and centering rings. Just make sure to use an 18mm. diameter tube for the engine (usually will need to be 2.5in long) and that the Center of Gravity of the Rocket is at least one body diameter ahead of the Center of Pressure and you'll be fine. You can find the Center of Gravity by balancing the rocket with everything in it, and you can find the Center of Pressure of the rocket by balancing a cardboard silhouette of your rocket, or you can find both before you build the rocket by using a simulator like Rocket Modeler II (http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/k-12/rocket/rktsim.html) or RockSim (http://www.apogeerockets.com/rocksim.asp).

What is the difference between model rockets and real rockets?

In a real rocket, there is short a time in atmosphere and the aerodynamics are less important. In a model rocket, all flight in the atmosphere and the aerodynamics are very important. In a real rocket, it has a liquid or solid rocket engine and a large propellant mass fraction. In a model rocket, it has a solid rocket engine and a small propellant mass fraction . In a real rocket, there are four forces during atmospheric flight. In a model rocket, there are four forces throughout flight. In a real rocket, there is a long powered flight . In a model rocket, it has a very short powered flight . In a real rocket, it has passive stability and active control . In a model rocket, it has passive stability and no control. In a real rocket, it has expensive materials such as aluminum, titanium, and nickel alloy. In a model rocket, it has inexpensive materials such as balsa, cardboard, and plastic. In a real model, there is a high speed and the heating is very important. In a model rocket there is low speed and the heating is not important.
