its a B14 but not THE B14 aka the one by Estes.This spring, by Aerotech. Just announced.
Which means it will be expensive.its a B14 but not THE B14 aka the one by Estes.
If it walks like a B14 and talks like a B14…its a B14 but not THE B14 aka the one by Estes.
12 bucks for 2Which means it will be expensive.
B14 BP might be, B14 APC is now.And no good as a booster motor
was that a typo and the NOW is supposed to be NOT CW?B14 BP might be, B14 APC is now.

C5-0?True - we still need that C5-0! Don't forget to sign the petition. https://chng.it/hs8hsMz4yx
You are correct. I have a typo.was that a typo and the NOW is supposed to be NOT CW?
I, and many others, think we need a C5-0 booster for the heavier two stagers, such as the Boosted Bertha. Check out the petition. I hope to get 200 people to sign it and use it to pressure Estes to make them.C5-0?

Not. B14Wondering...how short the delay could be made. Too short and the delay blows through...but the delay in a QJet must be fairly small in diameter, so the force on it from the combustion chamber would be lower than for motors with a larger diameter delay. So a couple of ifs: IF the force is low enough to make, say, a 2-second delay practical, and IF the ejection charge could be relied upon to ignite an upper-stage BP motor (or replace 4F with 2F BP so there's more likelihood of larger bits of material hitting the nozzle of the upper stage), it might be possible to make something like a B14-2, for boosters or for low flights of heavy rockets.
Possible, maybe. Practical...doubtful. It'd be a very niche product.
EDIT: Never mind. Just looked at a cutaway of a QJet and the delay is the same diameter as the rest of the propellant. Please ignore hypothesis.
Agreed 100%!!! And, Yes, I signed the petition as well, thanks!True - we still need that C5-0! Don't forget to sign the petition. https://chng.it/hs8hsMz4yx
Hmm, I'm guessing this new B14 with will be using a ceramic nozzle? If so, I'm anticipating increased incidents of lopsided/asymmetrical erosion of those nozzles like the other "higher powered" 18mm motors causing some pronounced arcing flights. I'm a bit leery of this after multiple experiences.
For those that dont know "INO" is "In Name Only". I agree it is a B14 but its only half of what the original B14 was, but at least it will fill half that niche.It’s a B14INO unless you can do this…

That is a bit harsh. It is not THE B14, but it is A B14 that might create it's own legendary following.For those that dont know "INO" is "In Name Only". I agree it is a B14 but its only half of what the original B14 was, but at least it will fill half that niche.

Hey, Thanks for posting that "full info" ad!I keep seeing questions asked that are answered in the PPT Gary posted earlier:
