SpaceX Cybertruck on Mars - The Tesla Paper Prototype
In perhaps the greatest mashup since Girl Talk’s All Day, or the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, Hohman Design was possessed with the idea of taking the paper-model plans for DIY Designer’s Tesla Cybertruck, and passing them through a Mars filter. All inspired by the prescient RUclips Space Journalist Marcus House, resulting in the compelling and metamorphic, Hohman Design Mars-Edition paper-model Cybertruck.

Meet the Team - 1/6/19 - The Hohman Design Podcast #1
My Estes Saturn V had a few great launches off a D12-3 motor. Then one day I guess the main parachutes were packed too tight. At apogee the ejection charge went off and only the capsule and it’s parachute ejected! The rest of the Saturn became an accordian landing crash. At least the crew was saved!
Indeed! The crew was spared! I was working on a model rocket modified to carry a Lego minifigure crew years back. I should dig it out and complete it. Your launch story is in the zeitgeist, reminding me of the Space X anomaly a few days ago.They too had a successful second stage performance despite the booster crash 8/28/24.
thank you for a great video very informative I have just got into model rocketry here in the UK and buying up kits got the estes Saturn V Skylab and Saturn 1B all 1:100 scale also got little joe 1 mercury 7. Also got Apogee 1:70 scale Saturn 1B and Saturn V together with Hiroc and a number of other rockets to build so going to be busy however the 1B and the Saturn V 1:70 scale will be the last to build once I get the others out of the way I have bought so much from Apogee I am now a VIR so my orders get done straight away only problem I have to wait a couple of weeks for USPS to deliver here in the uk anyway I keep watching your saturn v build over and over again Keep up the good work I have subscribed Regards Terry UK
Right now I'm in the process of building this exact same rocket from Apogee with the exact same engine. Your failure will press me to be really careful when assembling the engine and securing it in the tube. Thanks for the warning. I remember in the 70's buying some C rocket engines that were half price and thought i got a good deal. But they did the same as your engine in that the ejection charge went off right after ignition. I think the fuel was not glued to the casing securely. Your rocket painting was beautiful! I hope mine ends up half that. I'm almost done with the booster section and it is a lot of work but I've learned much about the great Saturn V. I wondered why did it have fins? Well Von Braun wanted to give it an extra couple seconds of stability in case it lost auto control to give time for the escape system to get the astronauts far enough away before it broke up and exploded.
Thank you for commenting! It's such a good model, a fun build and presumably a great one to fly. Just prep your motor days before so any adhesives from the assembly dry. I don't think motor retention was our problem. Had our motor completed a burn and then fired the charge, things probably would have gone as planned. Our motor came apart in a hot second and blew out both ends. We still intend to repair and re-fly. I hope you subscribe for whenever that happens and that we end up doing more to interest you. Also hope to hear more from you on your flight. If you remember, add another comment with your results or DM us a link to any social media posts about your project or flight. Ad Astra! I didn't know that about the fins BTW, thanks for sharing.
I launched my Saturn V and it was successful! I sent a link to your company email for videos and details. Thanks for your advice about building engines ahead of time. My first G79-4W engine did not ignite and switched to my backup engine which seemed to also not ignite but after 1.6 sec delay it did. I know the feeling of inviting all those people and then having it not work. It's a big risk. Hope you try again. I love you launch tower.
@@bobjulie298 As others have famously said: "Yay Bob!" What a cool gift to mark an occasion. You really made the most of it, fearlessly tearing into the build and creating a really cool moment of community surrounding the launch. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us and rekindling the fire to repair and attempt another launch ourselves. The GoPro footage from the ground and drone footage from the air were fantastic! Share those videos with the world! Congratulations. 🚀
I'm impressed by the touch design. Getting the right layers and how the communicate back to the micro would be interesting. Capacitor circuitry and the appropriate controller has me baffled. Did the build the ICs into the pcb? Crazy
Thanks for watching and taking the time to engage here in the comments. I hope you have seen Simone's RUclips video and her Kickstarter page. I'm not sure if she gets into the level of technical detail that you are clearly ready for, but she does go into different details than we did and explain the trials and travails of her product development journey. Both links are in the description here.
@@HohmanDesign thanks! I did search her YT and I did see the kick starter. P.s. for clarification, I'm looking for something similar for my own project, as 'touch controller' is fun or functional. That Gold is glorious 😆
I appreciate such work. For me, I’m lazy, so I shelled out for the Bandai Saturn V.
Sounds like the way to go! 😂Seriously, there is a 1/18th F-14 Tomcat by JSI/Merit that I would LOVE to obtain. Then again, glutton for punishment, I AM currently working on a 1:18 scale project right now of a larger plane than the giant Tomcat. Ours will have an 8-1/2 foot wingspan. Follow our Instagram or X accounts for updates, and subscribe here since we are working on a video of that project and others. Nice to meet aviation and aerospace aficionados here, isn't it?
My first thought of an alternate version took us back to our childhood, and watching three old WW2 show The Rat Patrol 😊 Mount an M2 Browning .50 caliber in the bed... big ole oversized nobby sand tires... Extra gas & water tanks... And have a military desert expedition version 😉
Cybertruck technical! dark. But I like the desert rat twist, laden with overlanding gear. There have been recent and frequent comparisons to the late 70's Lamborghini LM002, which I'm sure you remember had a military version called the Cheetah, aka the Rambo Lambos, roof hatches and all. First time I ever heard about Central Tire Inflation Systems. Speaking of desert rats, have you seen the BBC Series on the formation of the SAS, Rouge Heroes? It's an entertaining way to bring the modern mind partway into the environment and charismatic figures surrounding those auspicious origin events. I think the true story is every bit as fascinating as this one in which "the events depicted which seem most unbelievable… are mostly true", but this one does its own thing well as art and entertainment.
A white powder coated Cybertruck would be crazy to see driving down the street, let alone this NASA rover wrap. What a foresight to label the original a model a fingerprint machine! 😂
Right? I'm cleaning our stainless Sortimo HDWR storage towers today. Stainless...🙄
Same with my new CyberRefridgerator
Love it - Makes me more excited to see one in person and for the possibilities. So fun.
No doubt. I think of a stealth fighter matte black truck, with white cross drilled rims like landing gear, and red "NOT A STEP" markings like on an SR-71 Blackbird. Except, there is nowhere to put a "not a step" warning on a Cybertruck 😜
Way better production quality than Dune 2021. Both the truck and the video.
🤣I know who this is... In your world, knowing how you feel, I'm not sure that "better than Dune" is saying much, but thanks for watching and taking the time to ring in here. That's plenty heartwarming.
this is so dope!!! the starlink was a nice touch. love the attention to detail .
Thanks! There's no end to the fun that could be had with additional details like the dish cover. Antenna clusters? Radomes and other sensors. A winch? Glad you liked it.
Love the partially ablated Not-A-Coaster! 🤩
Thanks! And thanks for all you do for the space community! If someone is reading this comment and you have yet to experience the enthusiasm, knowledge, rigor and dependability of Marcus House on RUclips, I have links to his Channel in the Description. Go revel in all the exciting developments in the space industry and exploration which are happening all around us at this incomparable time in history, and brought to us by Marcus House!
Where and how did you get the information to build the launch tower. The dimensions for each of the floors and its entire tower and Mobil launch platform.
Thanks for watching @lox_5017 The gantry is 3D printed. Over a thousand hours of printing and then scores of hours assembly! We do hope to release a video about the gantry project so please subscribe and get notified for that future release. Our gantry was printed in parts from the files you can find here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:5024532 I recall it's creator was working with a smaller printer and at a different scale so he had every little part broken out to print individually. We took one part we knew the size of and used the percent different in size to scale all the parts to the scale of our rocket. We additionally took some of his individual parts and created our own subassemblies on the computer for prints we made on larger printers. We used measurements we took from that model and scaled them to design and build our own simplified plywood box as the launch platform but he has the model for a highly detailed base as well depending on your needs and interests. Good Luck!
@@HohmanDesign Thanks buddy! Looking forward to that video.
This reminds of all the the rc airplanes I built , I built a 1:10th scale F-4 phantom jet, took a a good solid year to build to scale. On the 4th flight a friend of mine he took off with his BVM F-86Sabre , beautiful jet ( it was) .He turned around in flight & started to fly in reverse flight pattern. Well lets says I realized we were heading nose to nose ,I chopped the throttle dropped the flaps & she pitched up & then his jet impacted mine rite in the bell pan. Fiberglass clowd, we both took our jets home in garbage bags. You never know in a hooby of any kind when you will have a failure, but we do the repairs & move forward. She's a beauty
Ouch! What a terrible incident. And to such a beautiful plane! The combination of the dihedral angle of the wing tips and anhedral angle of the tail fins on the F-4 have seen me reveling in that design for hours. I could swear the F-4 informs the drop ship from the movie Aliens. That thing is some sort of collage of and F-4, A-10 and an Apache helicopter.
Another great video, any particular reason why you use the Big Jungle animal glue ?
No reason, it was the wood glue in the smallest container of many in the shop, probably picked it up on some remote gig and thought it would be easiest to wrangle in the video. I have "Tightly Held" brand as well as "Mr. Fudd".
I've got a repop of the last time Estes repoped the 1:100 scale. I'm going to build it & get that beauty of a 1:70 scale Saturn V. Very nicely done 😊😊😊
Very cool. I have so many unfinished kits I don't know what the future holds, though maybe chasing high powered rocketry certs could be fun at some point.
I would have been crying. Admire your positive attitude. And as I tell Mt STEM kids. “if you don’t learn something new each day, your not living life to its fullest “ Just found your channel and watched part 3 build and was excited for this. You have a new follower. I haven’t flown since the late 70s and getting back into it. Mostly to get middle school kids excited about STEM and space. Blessings moving forward and look forward to more vids.
So happy to hear from a STEM Mentor! Thank you so much for watching, and for your emotional investment, and for taking the time to make a thoughtful comment, you're a great mentor. I hope you find more content and/or substance in some of the other videos, keep providing your feedback when you can, it is so encouraging. We have another four videos in post production and more than a half dozen in production! Release cadence has been hard tho, thanks for you patience as we work on getting those out.
This video is over a year old, and I came across it looking at reviews for the board. The amount of care that you put into this teardown, the high praise, and your decorum/cadence instantly made me a fan/subscriber. Congrats!
Thank you, Obie! That means a lot. Thank you for subscribing. While you can see that we are still challenged to regularly release videos, we do have several that are in post production and we hope you find yourself enjoying those soon. Please continue to share your thoughts with us as those new videos come out. Have a good one!
5:04 - SOLID GOLD
Thanks for watching Henry! I’m grateful whenever I have a touch point with enthusiasm like Simone’s. It sounds like you’re feeling it too. Have a good one!
Thank you so much for this video. I just got one of these from my wife. Seeing it taken apart really makes me appreciate all the design time and effort put into the details.
Thanks for the comment! The calendar is really great. Any thoughts about how you'll use it? Mine has been for my journaling practice. If it's too private a question, I do not mean to pry. I hope you'll consider subscribing to Hohman Design here on RUclips, perhaps our analysis of some other delightful piece of design will be of interest... Anywhichway, thanks for watching!
Chinese Motor??
I'm afraid this was all user error. I should've wrangled some experienced model rocketry talent to surround and advise this endeavor. I only had time for a passing glance when anticipating what would be involved in assembling and prepping the motor. We needed to assemble it with more time for epoxy to cure. When we fly this thing next time, we will get our house in order. Thank you so much for watching. Lot's of great projects in the editing process right now, including some railroad content so make sure to subscribe.
Also, just saw this info below in the comments. I had since forgotten, but I see we used the Aerotech 29mm Loadable Motor - G79W-4
Do you have any plans or schematics for the launch controller? I'd love to make one like this!
Hi Cody! What's your level of experience in electronics? The controller is rudimentary to say the least. Three simple concepts govern the whole project. First, the device is simply just a chain of switches. Power is passed from one switch to the next switch in-line and any switch that's OFF along the path will prevent a launch. While the narrative is one of "standby" modes, and "arming", the box is a dumb enclosure. There are no boards or chips (save for the clock), simply switches and wires. Second, most switches are double pole, so that each switch in the bottom of the case illuminates a status indicator in the lid of the case. While the signal for launch passes through one pole of each switch, the wiring for the other pole is made discreetly so the light comes on for a given "status" even if a preceding switch in the chain is OFF. This way, you get all the activity and drama out of the board when used in any order, while launch is impossible until the whole chain of switches are all ON. Third, it may be possible that the power running through all those switches has the adequate amperage to set off an igniter, we don't know, we never tested that. But just in case there was too much impedance in the chain, or even in any one of our components, our launch "signal", as it's passed through the final launch button, is not used to travel out to the pad and light an ignitor, rather, it simply toggles a relay that passes the unhindered amperage of the big video-camera battery right down the cord to the igniter. I got help with the audio component which was outside my wheelhouse, and the countdown clock with relay for automated launch is still unfinished. The clock with relay is wired in for auto-launch capability but the instructions for that board, which we found on Amazon, are in Russian and we have yet to figure out how to use it. We will be making a video specifically for the launch controller which should demonstrate all the things I have shared here and more so please subscribe and check back to see that content when we are finally able to do that. Additionally, depending on how serious your effort to duplicate this project becomes, please DM @HohmanDesign on Twitter or Instagram and I can probably arrange to share the closest artifacts we have to a "schematic" with you, though I would suggest not getting your hopes up in regards to our documentation. Thanks for watching, and your interest in the controller specifically, we can't wait to get the long overdue video out for this project.
I’m currently building the 1/70 Apogee Saturn V. Is this launch gantry available for purchase? I’d absolutely love it for display
Logan! So glad you are having the thrill of building this rocket. Tim's instructions are critical, and hopefully you find something helpful in our build videos as well, I hope you found those at our channel. The gantry is 3D printed so each person can print their own, over a thousand hours of printing and then scores of hours assembly! We do hope to release a video about the gantry project so please subscribe and get notified for that future release. Our gantry was printed in parts from the files you can find here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:5024532
VERY COOL I went into this video thinking it was actually a coaster 😂 but came out with interesting knowledge about the space x rocket
NSFW! Not Safe For Wood. 😂
Lookin’ good. Great work as always! I definitely got into the groove.
Yes. We need to post a 10hr Study Mix. Thanks for the comment!
What a cool way to take these “not a coasters” to the next level! Your hallmark attention to detail and master craftsmanship are always so fun to watch. Bravo!
Thanks! We got some other SpaceX themed things in the works, Tesla as well if that interests you, who knows, could be the same project ; )
I really like the contrast you created between the 4 pieces. Great work!
Thank you! I think my disillusion with the titanium finish is that I used a dark grey primer and a flat black paint. In the past, when I was painting props like air-soft, foam or rubber weapons, I used a light grey primer and a flat black paint and had I done that here, it would have produced the familiar effect for me.
I love the science lesson presented alongside the creative....But the charcoal grating sounds are just...heinous, yes heinous. I can't even or odd with that. I think about it and I want to vomit. But LOVED the results.
That nails on a chalkboard thing is called ASMR, all the kids are doing it these days. 😂 Ever since the character played by Tom Cruise in Magnolia mispronounces heinous as hein-ee-ous, and then furiously corrects himself to heinous, I always say it twice the same way. So thank you for that even if you weren't aware. Thanks for hanging in with us thru the cringe!
I actually like the charcoal sound - especially the bit where Tom drops the stick and it gives a metalic ring.
@@zerodbu The audiophile speaks. As everyone knows and frequently says, one persons misophonia is another persons treasure. Glad we brought it to you with rigor.
Amazing production.
Look in the description for our producer Tyler, so gifted! I am always amazed that the sometimes deflating material I produce on set becomes what it does during Tyler's post production prestidigitation. And there you go, with all that alliteration I think we have his Variety headline.
I had the 1975 version - was one of my first sets. They did a pretty good job back then with so few types of pieces and no specialty pieces made specifically for the set. There wasn't even a 90 degree angle piece that could turn your build from vertical to horizonal other than the 2x4 hinge you see the ladder attached to. I made good use of those "jet engine" piece of the years, though, putting them on my jets, helicopters, space ships, cars etc. before I got my first space lego sets!
How many tasks can the everyday calendar keep track of?
Dammit Jim! I love that user name! The calendar tracks one habit as I understand it. A habit tracking app is the fully featured tool for both reminders and rewards for many tasks. For me the calendar is an art object, an assemblage of your commitment to some primary clarity one is seeking, perhaps in the sense that if I can do this one thing well, it will likely inform my success in other areas.
Amazing I absolutely love it
Kyle did a great job. Thanks for watching!
Your channel deserves more views 👍
Thanks Beekeeper Q! I think if we could improve on our release cadence we would see some results there. Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoy the things to come: Trains, Space X, Tesla, Lego and more!
😂😂😂😂you deserved this trying to be smart capcom go Ecom go but this rocket crashed what's the meaning of all go don't be smart
Thanks for watching and sharing your point of view. Ecom? Maybe not so much... We'll try and tighten things up for you going forward.
And I thought the Estes model was impressive. I am prepping an Estes Saturn 1B and Saturn V Skylab for launch as soon as the weather clears.
Shepard's Prayer - "Dear Lord, don't let me fuck up"
Make/Fail Cycle? Um... during iteration, NOT the moment of Truth. People took time to show up. That implies accountability.
Pete, Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to reply. Let me start by saying, if you feel like you took the time to show up and watch our video, and you were let down due to any negligence on our part. I am sorry. There are several things that are all true at the same time regarding this project. First in the world of model rocketry there is a fairly high ratio of failures to launches. People flying at festivals with various levels of preparation often have their "moment of truth" result in things like an engine "robin hood" or "zipper" or "lawn dart" or some other catastrophic failure or "CATO". Those are almost always the result of some kind of user error as all of us amateurs are on a path of learning by experience, and usually the hard way. We had other successful flights on this day and other failures not seen in the video, this is all fairly common. Next I'll say that a museum quality build like our Saturn V is often something you don't want to fly twice, if ever! We planned from the start to attempt a celebratory launch, hoping beyond hope that we would not lose the rocket to a CATO or water feature or simply see it disappear forever into updrafts which we have experienced with other projects. There wasn't going to be any test flying prior to what we hoped to be a single anniversary attempt. Nevertheless, you make a strong point about accountability that touches on how hard it is to bring multiple complex projects together on a fixed schedule. We're talking about stacks of accountability, to various stake holders, often with conflicting interests, the farm owner who loaned us everything and scores volunteers who built things and others who came to film for us, friends and family in attendance, some from out of town. But the accountability extends far beyond the success of the flight, there is tying off several projects to some disappointing level of minimum completion, so the critical sleep needed before game day is just not happening... There are commitments falling through of those who planned to help and no longer can, so perhaps the video cannot be made which undermines our commitment to those who built things, there is the safety of those who came to participate and spectate, heat, hydration, parking, bathroom, and who have vasty different expectations based on their knowledge of the activity. There are the additional obligations of hosting guests for a weekend, and these few hours launching are just a small part of those commitments. We had more stinging failures of accountability than just having a model rocket failure which happens all the time. For one instance, we had prepared to include the cornbread and beans tradition of KSC, who since the shuttle program report to Houston "We have beans" after a successful launch and so we had volunteers prepare pans of beans and corn bread, vegan and omnivorous versions of each, and in the scramble of the failure, improving a video wrap up, and everyone's desperation to escape the heat, the announcement of our catered elements never happened and those unopened dishes went home unappreciated. My accountability to those with skin in the game like that haunts me.There are several lessons I take from the weekend and they all relate to delegating. The episode needed a producer to keep the production well in hand and if the host is the up-all-night builder then it has to be someone else. The event needed a planner who kept the itinerary up and made sure there was context provided for all who came, and that also shouldn't have been me. We should've courted contributors who had more rocketry experience if we were up around the limits of our experience, even if those people were strangers, and of course, start earlier. Even still, we did start early "enough" until volunteer's other priorities understandably delayed various builds and shoots and you can always imagine how much better things could go with more volunteer help in the form of producers and coordinators but there is only one of each of us who can actually show up so I don't know how helpful it is to fantasize about the assistance we didn't have. Hopefully what's important is the doing, and in the doing the failures, and in the failures the haunting, which you can detect bleeding all over the place here, and in the haunting, a better job next time. Even still, as capabilities are painfully earned, excitement grows and we reach for the stars with ambitious efforts extending beyond our new level of competency ensuring that the make/fail cycle inevitably continues. Thank you for prompting me to share these raw and still nauseating lessons. If you can think of additional corrective actions that ought to be obvious here, please let me know. I hope you decide to join us on the adventure of growing our skills and reaching for new heights, mistakes and all.
I was just surfing around while researching for building my own calendar like Simone's and stumbled upon your video. Very pleasant style, pace and mood you got - looking forward to check your other content out :) Best wishes from Denmark!
Jakob! Thank you so much for taking the time to share such encouraging feedback. Hopefully our past and future videos are all you are hoping for. To name a few upcoming projects, we have one on a Lego inspired fine art painting, one on a model train caboose restoration with a special message, and one with a paper model of a Cyber Truck on Mars. I hope you'll subscribe and let us know which of these projects hit the right notes for you. Thanks again.
@@HohmanDesign Thanks for reading and appreciating my comment; I've subscribed and will dive into your videos the upcoming days. See you around!
Didn't know Kyle got to talk to the original artist and use some of their renders, what an amazing resource for this awesome build!
Another home run video. Would have loved to see this in person - maybe richmond next!
That would be fun. It's going to be at The Virginia Museum of History & Culture. I saw a great toy exhibit there a couple years back.
Great exhibit! Thanks for covering it.
Maybe you can catch it in Richmond! We’d love to get up there and participate among our friends in RVA!
Pretty cool. We should build a 34 foot rocket. That would be neat.
D, Of all the people I know, if you decided on high powered rocketry, look out world. I love that you swing for the fences in everything and with total humility and generosity. Just driven, never in vanity. Thanks for being a friend. 🚀
Excellent Tom!
Thank you for playing a key role in the development of my S.T.E.A.M. Interests! And so much more related to whatever good character was developed in me along the way. All our teachers deserve some thanks for putting up with us if nothing else, but other teachers unforgettably shape our lives for the better. Thank YOU, Michelle!
I loved this presentation. Very professional and informative!
Thanks Jim. That means a lot coming from you. Keep your eye out this week for a new video about our visit the Discovery Place Science Museum for their visiting Apollo exhibition.
DUDE! that is so f#&king AWESOME!!! Nice job my man, very nice job😁👍👍👍
Thank you Erich! I hope you have gone on to watch our launch day video and saw our mishap. LMK if you think we should repair and launch it again? Also, subscribe to make sure you see the video we have coming this week about taking our Apollo projects to a Science Museum to join a cool touring exhibit of the Apollo Program.
@@HohmanDesign indeed i will. Also yes i saw the launch video...........😬....lol. I had a sort of similar issue on a launch, motor mount wasnt secured all the way so juuuuuust when i was clearing the gantry/launch rod POP! motor came shooting through the top of my rocket lol melted chute and all lol
@@HohmanDesign if it were me i would DEFINITELY relaunch it but whatever your decision its a sweet looking piece!
@@erichvonmanstein6876 There is a nickname for that particular type of CATO. In high-powered rocketry I have seen the motor fly through a rocket like robin hood arrow!
@@HohmanDesign lol awesome. You never want anyone hurt but the danger is part of the fun! Lol
Heck yeah - blast off - loved this little series man!
Thanks! To the Moon!
Fun hack!
Thank you. You are Mr. "make it your own" so much appreciated.
Phenomenal! I'd not heard of Simone Giertz. I appreciate your dedication to crafting videos that showcase interesting things. Cheers!
Thanks Michael! We have some fun things coming, Lego, Space X, and Tesla inspired projects and more.
Pretty cool.. nice, high quality content all around; audio, video, subject, product, workmanship, presenter, background... it's all top notch. Looking forward to more and watching your channel grow.
Wow. Thank you. I am blown away by the amazing work of those who volunteer with us. I hope you'll like some of the projects we have in the works.
Some great insights.
Thanks Taylor. I love these guys!
Can’t wait to see how these progress.
We mean to get back to it! As soon as we started, the four of us set off to four different states!
