So, does anyone know about this GAMANET protocol?  I have some S-Band stuff that should be able to pick it up.  But once it's picked up, I need to know how to process it into something meaningful  :D

I guess you'd need the exact spec, which doesnt seem to be open, but

Here are some screen captures from

http://tv.cntv.cn/video/C10601/0ce9d9c6698140eca259f761d50843c1


Another video here, hot fire test and more complete animation. They show whats clearly a liquid engine which i'm assuming is the upper stage YF-50, but just guessing

Original thread:

sure these pics don't belong on the model 6?
The last simulated launch shown on the video was a CZ-6.  The other simulated launches looked like CZ-11.  There were also a couple of bits showing liquid engines or stages, but the opening test firing looked like a CZ-11 (DF-31?) solid motor first stage.  Similarities to Castor 120.

It seems like a good idea to post some shots of the 1st launch of the CZ-11 on the day the 2nd flies. These have been just dug up by one of the mods of that Chinese forum I visit frequently. ;)

Images from a ground test of the CZ-11 show the designation WROII at the payload fairing. What does it mean? Maybe "II" stands for "11" but I have no idea for WRO.

Looks like there is a base charge to eject it from the canister, followed by ignition of the first stage motor at an altitude of about 10m.

Some are bound for happiness, some are bound to glory, some are bound to live with less, who can tell your story?

The in-flight photo shows a CZ-4C rocket, not CZ-11
