    apogee D10 motors, an obsrvation

    flew a couple of Apogee Medalist D10-3w* motors today, nice motors the power of a D in the space of a C. these motors are in fact made by Aerotech, they just have an Apogee label applied...the label that you need to peel off in order to fit them into a Bt20 motor tube.
    methinks that they would work nicely in either an outlander or a mars lander.
    *yes I know that these may not be the best value, they are however easy to get.

    I have about 3 Apogee D 10-7s. I'm thinking about putting them in my Tres.

    I launched my Diamondback a few times on D10-7s. Nice flight. Only problem I had was getting the ignitors into the motors. Had to sand the tips down a little. But was worth it.

    3 packs of D10 or D21 motors are available online from ValueRockets for those of us who wish to launch many, many of them.

    I just got a $300+ box full of E15 and D21 motors.

    The E15 motors are mostly for TARC teams. Perfect motor for this year.

    The new E15 is actually an E22 and is identical to the E20 sold in 2 packs.
