Why are RC motors 32mm? / Why does AT make RC motors that are 32mm ?

well, Aerotech made the 32mm R/C motors for the simple reason that they can then use the endburners inside the casing - and have the entire 29mm casing as a liner / insulator .

anyone besides me notice that the F13 relaod liner is actually an F20/F10 casing ( same xx phenolic,same length,etc ), prone to burnthrough on long burn motors - have not seen many F10's , but MOST G10 single use were known to burm through, so it;s all about protecting the hardware - and maybe just a little about not wanting them haphazardly flown in 'regular rockets' ( ie: overweight )

I just stumbled onto this thread tonight. Apparently it originally appeared when we were in the midst of our move and I missed it. Did anything come of getting together a workable plan and decals? This looks like a pretty cool kit. Way too cool to let it die as vaporware.

You are right it is a way to cool of a rocket, put as for me I have been having to much trouble in the last couple of years to do anything about this rocket and I was also hoping the plans would be found and posted on Ye Olde Rocket Shoppe.
