Next one to make such device should use a briefcase. It’s more cool.
And a 10 digit code. And a nicer video with more action, not show how it does not work.

Like the project, but have to agree that it would look alot better if it was inside a brushed aluminum briefcase

Holy shit I made HAD. Oh its Addictronics.com

I’ll make some more videos to show off all of the features. A briefcase? That would be gigantic.

Just a quick note that, in the UK at least, using this would be rather illegal as it involves modifying the fuses of fireworks (technically, any firework that has been modified in any way, and has not been submitted for testing, is automatically classified as Category-4). Never mind that remote electronic ignition is safer than the “light the taper and peg it” method, it still requires a professionals fireworks license from the BPA.

Where is the exploding stuff?

Would like to see a master and slave box. Slave has wire connections and battery power to trigger rockets. Master has screen, launch buttons, key, etc. Connect both via cheap phone/network cable? Put whole setup in aluminum briefcase, these cases come in many sizes.

@edz even though i am using a regular model rocket ematch to set them off?

@divolb that is a great idea, there are only 4 wires connecting the arduino to the transistor board, that is very doable.

Nice blog design, just wondering where you got it, I’m jealous.
