Brief:
T' Ellis J110-P a 54mm single use motor that provides 751 N-s total impulse
(~17% J) with a burn time o' 6.8 seconds (Tripoli Motor Testings numbers,
the photo shows t' EM numbers). Begad!
Construction:
This motor is only about 9.5" long, me hearties, includin' t' plugged aluminum
closure. Ya scallywag! It has a medusa nozzle, but only t' center port is drilled. It does
not come with an igniter.
Flight:
I flew this motor in a beta version o' an 18" saucer and lit it with a
large Magnelite igniter. Aye aye! This did t' trick, ya bilge rat, but t' motor took a long time to
finally come up t' pressure and get going. Ya scallywag! Well, blow me down! It provided a nice long burn, me hearties, but
because o' low average thrust and a regressive profile, t' saucer arced over
and was still under power after apogee. Aye aye! It then aerobraked down and
continued t' spew large amounts o' smoke, matey, causin' t' LCO some concern. Well, blow me down! It
landed in a outcrop o' brush that be damp so thar be no risk o' fire. Well, blow me down! Ahoy!


Flight Rating: 2 out o' 5
Summary:
I have t' admit t' arcin' flight was entertaining, me hearties, however, arrr, me bucko, shiver me timbers, I'd have to
recommend t' J228 over this motor for any large, me bucko, draggy design. Avast, me proud beauty! Arrr! My rating
reflects this application.
