There is also the rocketpy framework. https://docs.rocketpy.org/en/latest/index.html

Essentially it can do the same thing as openrocket, but in python. You can even go as far as to simulate liquid fueled rockets during flight, modeling for example how the depleting tank influences the center of mass. My student rocketry team used this for the flight simulation of our Ethanol/Liquid Oxygen rocket which flew to over 5km

Cool. Is there more information on their rocket or a video?

Sure! We launched at last years EuRoC Here’s a nice recap video: https://youtu.be/pc_Dvfo6m0g

Also here is our technical report: https://spaceteam.at/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Technical_Re...

Feel free to ask any questions. I’m the software lead of the project :)

Impressive. Where was the launch from?
