Quest E35 Single-Use Motors

The Quest E35W might become one of your favorite mid-power rocket motors that are 24mm in diameter. This is a FULL E-motor, being at the upper limit of just under 40 N-s of total power. It has great kick off the launch pad, which is what is needed for heavier rockets or those that are larger in diameter. At 95mm (3.75 inches) long, it is the same size as the Estes E12, but with more power, a huge white flame, and a deep throaty roar. And it still won't go so high that you'll risk losing your rocket. It comes in delays of 5, 8 and 11 seconds. It will be great in the Katana Jr, the LexxJet and the Super Big Bertha rockets (29mm adapter not included).

Aerotech I40N-P Motor

Aerotech continues to expand its line of single-use high-power motors. The latest DMS motor is the I40N-P motor. This is a long burn motor, with a thrust duration of 10 seconds. It utilizes the Warp-9 propellant in end-burn fashion to give this really long burn time which can allow extremely high altitudes for your lightweight rocket. But beware, it is plugged and therefore does not contain an ejection charge. So you'll need to use a dual deployment altimeter to kick out the parachute to bring your rocket safely to the ground.

Estes Super Big Bertha

The Estes Super Big Bertha is a mid-power rocket using 29mm diameter motors, that is over 3-feet tall and 2.6-inches in diameter. In this upscale of Vern Estes' design, the charm of his original Big Bertha model has not been lost, nor has the low-and-slow flight capabilities. This rocket could be flown all day on Estes E16s and recovered without breaking a sweat. But if you were in the mood for something more, it would fly nicely on any 29mm F motor around.

Katana Jr

Dual Deployment - at a
Mid-Power Price

Do you want to try out dual deployment, but don't want to build a high power rocket that requires either certification or expensive rocket motors? The Katana Jr. is our "practice rocket" for this very purpose. It is a FULL dual-deployment rocket, with a ebay, two parachutes, removable rivets, mounting hardware for the electronics, and a on/off switch. Plus, it has easy-to-follow instructions that will walk you through the process of doing dual deployment if you've never done it before. It is a 1/2-scale version of our popular Katana rocket, which means this rocket will slice the air just like its big brother.

Lifting Eye Nuts

Looking to simplify your ebay set-up? Instead of using two threaded-rods, which most people do, you can cut down to just one by using these 1/4-20 Lifting Eye Nuts. They are perfect for securing your shock cord to your ebay and locking in your ebay sled's threaded rod. Using these multitaskers can replace standard eyebolts, reduce the weight of your rocket, and they don't require wrenches to install and remove.

Gliding Parachute System

Gliding parachutes have the advantage that they can be steared. That means you can bring them back to yourself instead of having them just drift in the wind. Additionally, they are more efficient that a round parachute, so a smaller chute will give you a slower descent rate.

This is an experimental system that includes a nylon cloth Rogallo-shaped parachute and the controller ebay. It also comes with a servo, battery, and a charger for the battery. You will need to provide your own model-airplane style RC receiver and transmitter and have experience using them.

Three sizes are available: 24", 28" and 32". More information is available here.
