TMT Certifies Three AeroTech High-Power RMS Motors, Completes 29 & 54mm RAS Testing
AeroTech Information Release
6/7/10 TMT Certifies Three New AeroTech High-Power RMS Motors, Completes 29 & 54mm Reload Adapter Testing The Tripoli Motor Testing (TMT) Committee of the Tripoli Rocketry Association (TRA) has certified three new AeroTech high-power rocket motor reload kits in 54mm, 75mm and 98mm sizes, and has completed testing and certification of AeroTech’s 29 & 54mm Reload Adapter Systems™. The new reloads include the I170G-10A which is designed for AeroTech, Dr. Rocket™ or Rouse-Tech™ RMS™-54/426 motor hardware, the L1520T-PS which fits RMS-75/3840 hardware and the L400W-PS which fits RMS-98/5120 hardware. The I170G-10A is AeroTech’s sixth reload kit for the RMS-54/426 “soda can” motor hardware. The reload uses AeroTech’s Mojave Green™ propellant and delivers a certified total impulse of 419 N-sec, a peak thrust of 47 pounds and a burn time of 2.4 seconds, with a propellant weight of 218 grams and a total weight of 530 grams. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKY6KltI-2Y The L1520T-PS is AeroTech’s second Blue Thunder™ propellant reload for the 75mm RMS motor line. The motor delivers a gently curved thrust profile with a peak thrust of nearly 400 pounds, a certified total impulse of 3,716 N-sec and a burn time of 2.4 seconds, with a propellant weight of 1,773 grams and a total weight of 3,620 grams. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEw1BuOS9wY The L400W-PS is AeroTech’s third long-burning reload for RMS-98mm hardware and the first to be made available to its Level 2 certified customers. This “moonburning” grain geometry motor uses AeroTech’s White Lightning™ propellant and delivers a certified total impulse of 4,642 N-sec, a burn time of 12.2 seconds and a peak thrust of 173 pounds, with a propellant weight of 2,650 grams and a total weight of 5,089 grams. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTNpJ9eufAg TMT also completed testing of the new 29mm Reload Adapter System (RAS) with RMS-29/360 hardware and certified the use of the 54mm RAS with RMS-54/426 reloads in both 54/852 and 54/1280 cases. It should be noted that the use of the RAS in the RMS-29/360 case requires one “standard length” 29mm spacer as well as an “extended length” 29mm spacer for proper operation. Manufacturer suggested retail prices (MSRPs) for the new motors are $39.99 for the I170G-10A (P/N 09170M) $188.99 for the L1520T-PS (P/N 12152P) and $278.99 for the L400W-PS (P/N 12400P). Motor instructions (including thrust curves and other motor data), assembly drawings and TMT certification documents for the new reloads will soon be available for download in PDF format from the AeroTech Resource Library at http://www.aerotech-rocketry.com.
