e45 / f55 motor details?

Weather permitted. Dang that was the fastest 18mm rocket I have ever seen. Crack and gone.. more like a vertical rifle shot. No it was never seen again, it was a degree or two to the left of where I wanted so I imagine it drifted to the next township. I wonder how high it went..

I had just launched a minimum diameter F100-10 before this, and there was no comparison in the acceleration. So far that's two out of three of a pack of F100's that worked this summer, one to go. The rocket I use is worth all of three bucks so who cares lol.

Slight thread drift... I just scored 9 D21's... Time to have fun!!!

Close enough, the E45 is two of those and the F55 2.5 of them. Besides, the D21 is plenty of motor to lose an 18mm rocket instantly.

I think they had an E reload for the 18mm case also.

I digress... I can get some measurements if you need them, @dhbarr - but not this week. I have zero desire to go into my shop this week with the 100F heat wave this week.

When it stops being a trillion degrees, measurements would be pretty cool!
