Mike,

Thanks for the information about the motor I found.

A few more motor questions:

1) In 1994, Estes released a new E2X kit called the Manta (Parasite B/G). I bought one and the packaging/box listed C10 motors for use with this model. Also, I heard of a C4 motor around the same time. What happened to these two motors?

2) The 1993 catalog introduces the Pro Series Terrier/Sandhawk and Jayhawk scale models. The motor listings for these two kits refer to E15 & E30 motors. Was this E15 the black powder motor which was released? What about the E30 motor?

3) At several hobby shows in the early 1990s, I saw a sign announcing that Estes would have composite motors. This was many years before North Coast Rocketry and the F62 motor. I have attached a picture of the sign. What is the story behind the product mentioned on the sign?

Thanks for your time and I look forward to your answers.
