Hi,

Is there anyone in the Gravesend area who is in to pyrotechnics(in any form) as a pastime?

Being the only person I know who is actually in to pyrotechnics can be a little bit dull on occasion.

Other interests include:

Building and flying RC aircraft
Anything R/C
FPV flying
Electronic and mechanical engineering
Lasers amongst other things

And any combination of the above.

Hi Elliot and welcome to the madhouse. I can assure you, you have come to the right place. Have a read through the forums, it's all good

It's definitely looking that way!

I am amazed that this forum exists, I am of course very happy that it does.

I just get funny looks when I try to involve 'normal' people in something I'm trying to do.. Sending helium balloons to the edge of space, creating large underwater explosions, launching multi-stage rockets with inboard cameras.. I just wasn't in to playing football with all the other boys, there were far more interesting things to do like making gokarts and fireworks.

The projects have just gotten more advanced as the years have gone on.

I have a friend up in Burton who has more or less the same interests but it's a good 4 hours away, I was hoping to find someone 15-20 minutes away who was up for doing some crazy stuff.

That would be an area inside of a triangle between Sevenoaks, Dartford and Gillingham.
