How many engines to you have at home??
EDIT: MOTORS NOT ENGINES!!
 
Well, does micromaxx count? If so, I have around 120. If not, I have 40-50.
 
I don't have any engines for my rockets...I only fly motors :D

I'm in the 0-15 catagory :(

I have one in my truck and one in my car.

Motors on the other hand.... :)
 
if you count individual reloads in a pack i have aroun 55 motors. (Estes AT and Quest)

I have 500 certified motors counting Micro Maxx.

314 of them are 1/4A through F. the remaining 186 are Micro Maxx.

I have about 40 decertified motors that I hope to fly in the old motor testing program.
 
Somewhere between 200 and 250 here including micromax. (probably got about 150 of them!) Gotta slow down on the Blast Off Packs! ;)

Boy Bob and I thought I had a lot, around 250 give or take.

Well, everyone kept giving me 50% off Michaels coupons so I stocked up on Blast-off packs. I have 6 unopened boxes.

Sounds like me. With the 40% Michaels and Hobby Lobby coupons I have stocked up on some Blast-Off packs, but mainly I have been stocking up on "D" and "E" motors over these winter months :D
 
Before today, I'd gone to several launches where our usual onsite vendor was absent, so my stock was very much depleted. $150 later and I'm back in business.

Around 200 A, B and C.
About 40 D+, both BP and APCP including some OOP (2 F100-10 and 2 G110-10).
And that's after a launch today. If I'd have taken some cash, I'd be back up to 60+ on the Fs and Gs -- Road Runner was at our launch.
 
cool poll.

you should seperate it into two polls.

how many high power/how many model rocket,

by the way, ask me how many motors I have on my desk at work right now.... :D

you don't count. You can walk 100 feet and see 1000 N2000's :p

I have 131 BP motors A-E and 67 AP motors D-J for a total impulse of 9874.40 NS!!

That's nothin' though. My flying buddy has twice that much!! :D
 
Judging from the results of the poll, it seems that rocketeers tend to be hoarders! :D I certainly resemble that remark, since I have over 50 unbuilt kits as well!!

And yet Estes has been calling them engines since, well, the beginning of the hobby. :confused:

I snagged a bunch at WalMart a couple of days ago, but I'm still in the under-35 category. I feel so inadequate...
 
If it weren't for the Blast Off Flight Packs, I would be at less than 60. Because of the coupon situation, I'm up between 175-200.
 
I have 27....


...bulk pack boxes....

doesn't include 3/packs or loose motors and don't even *get* me started in MMX motors... :D

ugh!

*but* that means a lot of flying this year, so it's good :)
 
Only about 25. :( However I have only been in rocketry for a month, so not too bad. I need to stock up on D's and E's along with a few A,B's, and C's for the Alpha and Deuces Wild.

So far:

124 AP E-G AT
174 MMX
589 BP A-E Estes
____

887 Total 13957 NS!

Collection engines (decertified or never certified)

42 A-D Canaroc (A-C are BP) (D I've been told they are sugar motors!?)
(Is this true?)
1 E FSI BP
4 A Russian BP
____

47 Total

And don't ask me how many rockets I have ... :D
 
Well - I sadly underestimated how many motors I have in my first post. Just did an inventory (had to see what I'm missing and what I still need ;) ) and I'm up to 290 BP (Estes/Quest) and 180 MMX-II motors.

Hmm... got a 30% off all items coupon from Michaels - better go get more! :D
