I will agree that is a wide generalization. But the fact that AT is making loads for AMW Hardware is not "wrong"... A Manufacture legitimately doesn't even need to produce hardware to have motors certified. They just need to submit the hardware of the manufacture they are certifying motors in.
Accusations relating to Patent law in this thread are completely ridiculous. They make no sense at all. The AMW Fuels are not patented, nor is the hardware. It doesn't take a patent lawyer to see that. Future discussion of it, or the discussion of ink cartridges in this thread is a waste of bandwidth.
The CTI/AT dual use grains certified by CTI set a standard in which Company A could use another Company B’s hardware for certifying reloads.
It is my understanding that Gorilla Rockets requested to be able to use AMW Hardware for certification of their motors as well. But at the time, they would have needed to submit 2 or 3 of each hardware size and type for certification.
AT may have been upset at CTI when they certed loads in the AT Cases... It was new, and set a precedent in the hobby. Never before had cross certification been done. Now it is old hat and manufactures should be aware that it can be done as long as the proper procedure is followed.
Stating that there was not a "Clear Acceptance" of CTI/AT Cross Compatibility is false. There is no question that CTI loads in the large AT Hardware is accepted.
Now since I think Dark Helmet is probably a smart guy... He can tell us all why CTI can't certify their loads in AT Hardware... <-- Hint: (CHOO CHOOOOO)
As for Full Disclosure on our products... We do not currently have motors certified for any other manufactures hardware. Will we be doing something in the future? YES. That isn't a secret. let me link you to
www.trojanhybrids.com in case you want to check them out. It is TRA/TMT's Position that the use of a standard size tank for a hybrid motor such as a "Catalina cylinder" is ok.
Those motors were displayed at LDRS 26 in Jean, NV. The Use of Our Products on a HT Brand tank has been approved for certification. CTI/HT may not be "Happy" about it, but they set the precedent years ago.
Manufactures have never been able to agree on a common hardware spec... Maybe this is the start of it?
