Quest Rocket Engines
I'm really just writing this to complain.
See, I wanted to buy a 25 pack of A6-4 engines for the club launches. That would get me 25 Q2-G2's to make our various clusters ignite more reliably, and 25 nice little engines to fly small rockets on. I'm flush with Estes C6 engines, but low on A's and B's. Basically out of A's.
So I look around, and the bulk pack is a pretty good deal. I found a vendor willing to sell them for about $45.00 a pack... not a great deal, but I can live with it.
But $11.00 shipping is the lowest I've found. Yeah, I know, they're rocket engines... but for a calculated $6.72 per each three engines, I might as well cough up for three-packs at the local hobby shop.
Gah.
I just need to find someone who sells them off the shelf in bulk packs.
Okay, whining time is over, back to work...
