the 13mm -0 booster engines? I notice that Estes isn't making them anymore and they are de-certed (or soon to be). Why did they stop?
I managed to find one packet of A10-0T engines at a hobby shop that was going out of business, so I bought them, figuring I would use them sometime. Well, sometime was Sunday, when I launched my kit-bashed/repaired (new, longer body tube) X-Ray that I have dubbed the Stretch-Ray. I had an extra set of fins, so I decided to make it a two stage. That A10-0T kicked butt. Staging happened higher than I am used to, and I lost sight of the rocket completely. This is now one of my favorite rockets, and it kills me that I only have three more flights on it.
BRING BACK THE 13mm BOOSTERS!!!
