Let the games begin!

My liquid rocket design project has started.
Inspired by Xcor's small-scale rocket development, in particular,  their "Teacart Rocket" demonstration:


I have chosen to replicate the 50 lbf, isopropyl alcohol/nitrous oxide rocket.


Basic Design Parameters
Thrust: 50 lbf
Fuel: 99% Isopropyl Alcohol
Oxidizer: Nitrous Oxide
Chamber Pressure: 300 psi
Cooling: Water
