Additive Aerospace: THREADED CHARGE CANISTERS

[cwbullet]

Guys,
This review is unsolicited, but the product was provided for me to test. Don't let that affect your opinion of this review.

I am basing this review on the ground test and single test flight I have performed. The photos are from the product page because mine would not do justice to the quality of this product.

Threaded Charge Canisters by Additive Aerospace


They arrived about 2-4 weeks ago and were well packaged and protected. I did not originally intend to do a review so I did not do any unpacking photos. Upon unpacking, I was very impressed with the quality. They milled well and are well thought out. The small groove that the base is there to route the e-match wire, but you can also go through the lid. I did not try this. I prefer the slot.

The best part of the canisters is that they use a common low-profile water bottle lid as the top to seal them. It is an ingenious way to encourage us all to drink more water. They are a little expensive, but they can be used over and over again for years to come.



Rating:
Quality 5/5
Value: 4/5
Design: 5/5
Overall: 4.66/5

The bottom line: These babies work and are worth the cost. They have encouraged me to drink more water to hoard more caps. I am well hydrated and I have these great little canisters for deployment.

Hey CW, I have seen discussion on other threads about poorly completed BP burn with short charge wells. Did you see any evidence of that in your use? I would assume that, if there is no evidence of incomplete burn, the cap retains pressure long enough to ensure a complete burn.

No, there was no evidence on increased residual BP left over after the use of these,

Hoping to get some real burst pressure data, but I can say with certainty the caps are MUCH better at retaining pressure than the tape typically used on canisters. My initial guess is at least 60psi.
