Those Aerotech D's are a full 20 n-sec and the E's are 40 n-sec too.
Sure beats the pants off the wimpy 17 n-sec Estes D's and 28 n-sec Estes E's for about the same price.
The Aerotech engines are lighter to boot !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC !

I will look into it and try to give you an update on Monday.......hopefully....


Well, what do ya know, I just got e-mails this week from both Tower Hobbies and Hobbylinc.com that the Super Neon XL, Photon Disrupter, and Satellite Interceptor are all now available. I just placed my order with Hobbylinc (it was cheaper, both on kit prices and shipping, at least for this order).

And while perusing both web sites I noticed there are now even more new models added for expected delivery in February and May. But there are still some others of those models that were due in December that still haven't shown up with no estimated deliver date on either site.

But at least some of them hit the light of day, so maybe Estes still has a fighting chance!

And I just checked on the Super Alpha that I had on back order with the expectation it was coming "early February" and now Tower is showing "late May"! Oh well, it's not like my build pile isn't big enough already .
