Something I came up with at breakfast time: a BT-80 rocket using two Quest D5s for the "prime movers" and an 18mm center engine to provide the ejection charge. Altitudes range from just under 1,400' to 2,050, depending on what's in the 18mm engine tube.

Your review and critique would be appreciated.

I have been flying a BT-80 model with a central 24mm tube with 7 18mm tubes around it. I install the D5-0P with an adapter in the central tube and then install either 3, 4, or 7 C6-7 motors in the outer tubes. Unused tubes have plugged spent motors installed.

Ignition is with Quest Q2G2 igniters.

Altitudes are spectacular. I've been flying this for 2 years now and I have at least 4 D5-0P motors left.

When they are gone I can move up to E9-6 or -8 or E12-6 or -8 motors.
