For $1 we will build a rocket in your colors, put your name on it, and send you a video of us shooting it off. The video will be on youtube.


It's super cheap and silly. Could it get thousands of backers just to see it, or is it too useless and nobody will want it?

The videos will be extremely simple, just your rocket being flown and that's it. No special effects or anything, especially at the $1 level. But I would love to make 10,000 videos and have them all shared by backers, even if it's just a buck for each one.

What are your thoughts? Good idea? Terrible idea? Out of my mind, think about the time involved in each one, and for only a $1!

Firstly, glad you could use the "gunpowder" thing I mentioned in your other thread.

Secondly, I'm on my iPad to will keep this brief...

I watch your video of the kids jumping on the bottles and launching the rockets into the air...

...and, being flat-out honest, helping provide kids in a school somewhere with the SoDapter has absolutely no appeal to me.

However, I keep thinking, "damn, I wish I could buy 2 or 3 of those rockets for my Son". I'd be all over backing the project for those. Surely I'm not the only person thinking this?

So, while your ultimate aim is to get SoDapters into schools ...maybe you have to sell rockets to people like me to achieve this.

I feel it's silly, but you never know maybe someone will want it.

You aren't the first one to address this. Charles had mentioned it to me as well. I went ahead and added a lot of content to our kickstarter page. One of the things I was trying to bring out was the "fun-ness" for the family at home, and not just kids.


I'm going to work on adding more of that aspect in there.
