Hi I'm new to mid/high power rocketry and Initially I was building my Sprint for my L1.
I will still build it but have decided to buy a PML X-Calibur (same as Phantom)
I want to concentrate on the fun factor and the fact that it's a Kit makes it less worrisome.
As for motor choice I can get the pro 38 locally either 1G or 2G casing.
If I were to buy the 2G is it possible to load it with less grain?
1G would make more sense but for future use the 2G would be better I think?
Now a 3rd choice seems to be available from another local company called westcoast hybrids https://westcoasthybrids.homestead.com/home.html
They have just produced a 38mm G hybrid and the $$ seems reasonable.
The product will be demonstrated at BCRC's next launch by them and they will even have a building seminar the day before launch.
Showing how easy it is to convert from regular propulsion to hybrid.
So I'm not sure which way to go here if anyone has any suggestions let me know.
Mike
