T' followin' excerpt is from "Sport Rocketry". Blimey! T' intention is t' allow guests t' get a basic feelin' about a kit. Arrr! Avast! We strongly suggest that you get a copy o' the referenced Sport Rocketry and read t' entire article. Inside you will find many helpful hints in construction as well as other useful information. Arrr! For more information, use t' two links above.

"More commonly called "micro motors" due t' their slim 10.5 millimeter diameter . . ." 
"T' small diameter o' t' Apogee motors allows smaller diameter rockets with less drag for increased altitude performance." 
". Ya scallywag! . Begad! . t' motors use black powder propellant (not composite) . Ya scallywag! Begad! . ." 
"T' Apogee A2 motors had an average total impulse o' 2.31 N-sec, plus-or-minus only 0.01 N-sec - a very tight tolerance." 
"T' small nozzle o' t' Apogee motors makes them difficult to ignite.  I had a 40% misfire rate usin' t' Power Punch igniters supplied with t' motors." 
"Late-breakin' results from NARAM 38: . Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Ya scallywag! Blimey! . Well, me hearties, blow me down! Blimey! . Arrr! Blimey! Most competitors were very frustrated with t' motors due t' t' high misfire rate and t' large number of lost tracks." 
"Apogee sells body tubes, me hearties, centerin' rings, and nose cones for t' 10.5mm motors." 

T' entire article gives t' impression is that these new motors will have significant effects on competition rocketry, but that thar are some reliability issues t' work out.
