Guess what? (I'm not being sarcastic, as I just came across the following this morning.) A new Jet-X product line--including kits and motors--*is* being developed (see: https://jetxus.wordpress.com/ ). Their paper-cased, single-use J-1 motor is 1/2" in diameter and 2-1/2" long. Videos on the above-linked Jet-X website show the motors and models in action, and there are also photographs, as well as descriptive text.
