Although I collect vintage motors, I have accumulated several dozen 1/2A6-4s.

This weekend, I launched my 1970's vintage ESTES Mark II, and a boosted (2 stage) Alpha on the 1/2A6-4s, and used an A8-0 for the booster.

All three motors performed flawlessly.

The two 1/2A6-4s left a very healthy brown-grey strip of tracking/delay smoke.
I immediately thought of this thread.

As an aside, I launched a BT-5 downscale of the old ESTEs Renegade on a 1/4A3-2t, and the motor spit out the back. There was a good 1-2" long flame that shot out with the motor. I was stunned!
