"New" Estes Motors
Well, I at least got to scoop others on something.
Here's a picture from my hobby industry insider showing a couple of "new" motors coming from Estes next year.

Yes indeed, two booster motors have returned.
A8-0 A10-0T Once again, these have been on the request list for sometime. Other motors were considered, but, they would have to be recertified, and, that takes time. There may be other coming out next year as well, just a guess. And from has been discussed here as well, the B6-0's have been repackaged in three packs, not only in a bulk pack (educator pack). |

I guess I can shut a couple of my booster manufacturing lines down now. I'll still have to keep my 1/2A3-0 and 1/4A3-0 lines running, though.

Now if they'd only package the A8-5 in bulk packs. A8-3 delays are too short for the Alpha and Generic-E2X kits that most schools use. |

Man this is awesome! As someone noted in a separate thread, I think the proper response would be:
O.M.F.G.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could this be the beginning of the NEW Golden Age of rocketry?

Gah! Visual Basic!
It's better in Python: Code:
... okay, not much different... but just wait until you need a meta-class for engines!
