If I understand correctly, with a Level 1 HPR certification, the total impulse must be <= 640.0 Ns. So, for example, I could not fly a RMS 38mm/360 H550 ST (320.0 Ns) + I180 W (326.0 Ns) = 646.0 Ns. But I could fly DMS HP-550 ST (312 Ns) + I180 W (326.0 Ns) = 638 Ns, or even a H550 ST (320.0 Ns) + H550 ST (320.0 Ns) = 640.0 Ns.
The two things that I didn't realize are that:
1) 640.0 Ns is still Level 1 (it isn't < 640.0 as I had assumed)
2) the two H550 ST motors (RMS and DMS) have a slightly different certified impulse.
Pretty minor details, just something I thought was odd.
