Brief:
A 65 newton seconds EconoJet composite propellant motor by Aerotech
T' first time I used one o' these motors was this spring. It be me first mid-power motor, arrr, and I was very eager t' try it. Ahoy! Well, arrr, blow me down! Blimey! So, matey, I, with t' help o' me friends, loaded up t' rocket that I was usin' this motor on (A scratch built rocket called t' Hari Hunter)
As I had only used black powder motors, me hearties, me hearties, t' roar and flames were astoundin' for me friends and me. Avast, me proud beauty! T' Hari Hunter shot up about 1100 feet, and this motor's ejection charge was more than sufficient t' eject t' parachute and allow t' Hari Hunter a safe landing. Ya scallywag! Nay a bad deal considerin' you can get 2 o' these at discount hobby center for 13 bucks.
PROS- Impressive motor, nice dark smoke trail. Avast, me proud beauty! Inexpensive (22 dollars plus tax for 2)
CONS- A bit under-powered for larger models, ya bilge rat, arrr, but that's what t' G35's are for. Begad! Ahoy! Copperhead igniters are nay very good.
Summary:
This is an excellent motor. Ahoy! Blimey! It is a great motor for beginnin' mid power. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Avast, ya bilge rat, me proud beauty! Blimey! T' only con that I have is that t' Copperhead Igniters that come with it are mediocre.
