So the Quest E26 and CTI 22 compare favorably in performance, while the E22 has a larger spike in the first 0.1s, the E26 has 3N-s more total impulse. It doesn't compare quite as well to the CTI E31, which has a significantly higher average thrust, though similar total impulse:
A 2-pack of Q-Jet E26 motors retails for $17.49, a single CTI E22 or E31 retails for $17.38 (not including case) each. Unless I really need that initial spike, I think I'll be switching to the E26. I wonder if there would be a way to get a larger initial thrust spike on the E26? Is the CTI initial spike largely due to the starter pellet getting the grain going faster?
