This research aims to design and develop an automatic water rocket launcher system that integrates a DC motor-based mechanical drive and a pneumatic system as a propulsion mechanism. The launcher is designed with the capability to automatically adjust vertical elevation angles up to 90 degrees and horizontal rotation up to 360 degrees using chain-gear transmission. The research methodology includes design stages using SolidWorks, assembly of mechanical-pneumatic components, and performance testing with variations in voltage and rocket mass. Testing was conducted at four launch angles of 20°, 40°, 60°, and 90° with three voltage variations for each vertical, horizontal, and two-meter trajectory motion test. Test results indicate that voltage increase significantly affects system movement speed, where higher voltage produces faster travel time and actual angles increasingly approaching theoretical angles. In the two-meter trajectory test, travel time decreased consistently with increasing voltage, ranging from 7.43-7.96 seconds at 7V, 5.3-5.7 seconds at 9V, and 4.20-4.58 seconds at 11V. Rocket mass also affects performance where heavier rockets require longer travel time. The launcher system demonstrates stable performance with high precision and is capable of providing consistent data across various test variations, fulfilling the research objective to produce a water rocket launcher that can automatically adjust angles with reliable mechanical-pneumatic performance for educational and competition applications.
