APOLOGIES TO AMWPROX.... I just went and looked again this morning. Their site seems "same-but-different" somehow AND it DOES have PayPal and Credit Card options.... So maybe they were having technical issues on NOV 15th.

I can’t wait to take photos of your first White Lightning launchOrdered a few direct from Quest, can’t wait to try them out!
dpower, if you don't mind let me know if/when you get a shipment notice. Mine were ordered direct with Quest on Nov. 20th. Checked with Customer service and they still have not shipped.Ordered a few direct from Quest, can’t wait to try them out!

Now with Black Friday and Cyber Monday shipping volumes with the carriers, I am getting a feeling, I won't see them anytime soon....disappointed if I can't fly them before the weather turns, and I have to wait till spring.
Any chance we'll see more white lightning Economax/Econojet 24mm-29mm motors from Aerotech again like the 24mm F21 and 29mm G35? Became a BAR during the era of F20/G35 Econojets and the 24mm F21 which came a bit later was fun as well.
As it currently stands, only the E20 and F20 fit into that category.
Are there plans for more 38mm and 54mm DMS Blue Thunder and Super Thunder motors?
As a businesd development manager; this is not how to launch a new product...
In November, I was at a launch and someone needed a delay adjustment tool to drill their delay. I knew I had one, but when I went to drill, it was very different. I reviewed the document included with reloads and it specified a type of drilling tool. Looked different than mine and was named differently.
The one I have, is the one I received when AT was trying out the EZ delay or whatever it was. These are the ones that kept getting "surprise" delays. I wonder if my drilling tool should be pitched - it is named "UNIVERSAL DELAY DRILLING TOOL"... Should I get rid of this one?
Thanks

dpower, you will have to let me know how they fly. My order placed on Nov 20th still not shipped. Customer service just told me it could take up to 4 weeks to ship, add to it holiday transit times, maybe they will be here for spring launches.Placed order on 11/22, got shipping notice on 11/23. Actual ship date was 11/28.
2) Any plans for a 38mm version of the forward closure bulkhead plug? I'd like to not have to buy a 38/480 case and the endburn style forward closure just to fly the I59WN if I could buy a bulkhead plug and use the 38/720 case and two spacers that I already have.
I flew my first Warp 9 motor yesterday. The I1299 is one hell of a motor.
I too would love to be able to fly the I59 with my existing hardware (38/600 with RAS), instead of buying another case and forward closure.Seconding this request. I'm working on a group project that ideally involves a cluster of at least 8 I49's or I59's, and it would be nice to not have to buy a ton of endburn-only closures.
Anyone have a schematic of the end burn closure? I see that's it's different but I wonder if a plugged closure would suffice?I too would love to be able to fly the I59 with my existing hardware (38/600 with RAS), instead of buying another case and forward closure.
The schematic is on their website: https://www.aerotech-rocketry.com/c...gs/38mm_hp_rms/38-480/38-480_i59wn-p_assy.pdf
The closure needs that protruding surface presumably to support the front of the propellant grain because of the hole in the forward insulator.
The J1299 is a 54 mm bates grain. Uses standard closure. The J99 is an end burner. There is an insert for the plugged closure for use as an end burn closure. It also uses the small hole rear closure and a 29 mm nozzle.Is that needed for the J1299?
