While there may not be much in the way or practical applications for this, I 
thought the amount of time and engineering effort that went in to this was just 
incredible.  Truly remarkable.  Makes my L3 flight childish in comparison.

thrust vectored F class motors

 

I came across this youtube video of a flight of a model rocket that is fully 
controlled to do a vertical takeoff and landing using two F class motors and 
just had to share.

The rocket includes: 

*       Flight controller with associated sensors
*       Reaction wheel
*       Thrust vectoring mount for the rocket engines
*       4 high speed cameras on board
*       900 MHz radio data link
*       GPS
*       Emergency actively deploy-able parachutes
*       Actively deployed landing legs

This is my first post to this list, so please let me know if I should not be 
sharing this sort of content here.
