These are more than reasonable prices for near full DE and a mid F(say 60nt-sec?)....especially in BP and todays market, when you take into consideration that they come all the way from China.

Plus the D's are much more near a full D (the Estes D is only 17nt-sec) and the E wil be near full E(thats near 37-38Nt-sec) .

Both the E's and F's will obviously require hazmat (because the E will be > 30g and the F will be right at 62.5g) .

So you have a choice : lower total impulse Estes DE or higher Total Impulse Quest DE

Besides, there's nothing like the smell of big BP motors in the morning!.

Terry,

Those are reasonable prices. I'll buy plenty. I'm going to need those E16-0 and F16-0 booster motors!

Did anyone notice the Quest pictures from the NARAM Live link I posted earlier {Evening events Sunday page 2}. I see a two stage prototype in the mix ..... around the middle of the page directly following the pictures of Bill Stine.

Resembles a two stage Nike-Ram. Looks like it has "High-D" as the proposed name on the side of the rocket.
