I was under the impression that the Loki G94 was a certified reload by TRA. But at a local launch when we looked it up in the list of certified motors it wasn't in there. Was it certified and the decertified, or am I mistaken about it having been certified?
 
It was definitely certified...

Odd that I don't see it on the combined list.....

EDIT: Not odd... it looks like none of the new Loki 120 motors have made it onto the combined list....which itself...is odd.

Two new offerings from Aerotech. These are 98 MM reloads, one each for the 5120 and 7680 cases. These are Super Blue Thunder Reloads with the high ISP results and the short burn times with high “get off the pad” Max Thrust outputs typical of that formula.

Loki Research has certified a new batch of reloads as well as one new propellant, Loki Ice Blue. Ice Blue is a White Blue flame propellant. Currently Scott has Loki Blue (LB), Loki White (LW), Loki Red (LR), Loki Cocktail (CT), Spitfire (SF) and Loki Ice Blue (IB). Also noteworthy is there are 3 G size motors out of this set of 6 certifications.

Thanks. That is the info I had found before as well. I guess I could just bring that info to the next launch so I can actually fly it.
 
This is one in flight-

Yea...it's weird that none of the new loads made the combined list. I'm honestly shocked they held you up over it.
 
Yeah, especially since I have flown one before, and there is significant overlap between CMASS and MMMSC especially in the LCO/RSO staff. It is a fun motor, and I am totally hooked on the loki motors because of it.

yea, all the 120's are a good time. G80 was my gateway drug.
 
I apologize for this. The combined list of certified motors hasn’t been updated in a while and I didn’t realize it. We’ll work with NAR to get that done as soon as we can.
