    Hey Gang,

    This is a hot motor!

    365 pounds of peak thrust
    1814 newtons total impulse
    fits the 54/1706 motor hardware

    Starting immediately I'll be selling all Aerotech 54mm and 75mm I, J, K and L reloads at 10% off MSRP.

    This includes Kosdon by Aerotech and Kosdon by Aerotech Animal Compatible reloads.

    Currently they're listed at retail on my website.

    All 75mm L's, and M's will be 20% off.

    All 98mm K's and L's will be 20% off.

    All 98mm M's and N's will be 25% off.

    Rouse Tech complete line of hardware is already marked down 20% off MSRP on my website and will remain the same.

    Ken is a good guy. I try to order every launch to support his trip. Great service with a good conversation.

    This is cool that Ken is cemented in with this launch..just good business!
    And I'm glad that Chuck commented on Kens traveling expenses.
    If you have personally known a Vendor... you know how much they have to spend on a minimum propellant order....and they have to secure a room for the weekend like you.. and buy Water..Food..Gatorade..etc etc..
    Anyway Ken, we love that you will be there!

    I hear a lot of people say they would prefer to buy online. I do both because you need to support you on field vendor. It is just makes good sense. If you do not, they will go away. I know some of the prices are higher, but the way to think about it is shipping and hazmat are already paid.

    The M1675 is a great motor. I launch my Darkstar on it to over 6000.
