ImageAerotech:

The previous NAR S&T notice announced certification of the Aerotech E15-PW (24mm x 70mm, 40 N-sec). Two notes are appropriate:

  1. This motor was actually certified back on August 2, 1994.
  2. The announcement that it was a "single-use disposable motor" meant that you throw it away after use. Though it is appropriate for use in Radio Control (R/C) rocket gliders when an ejection charge is not appropriate, it is *not* a reload for the AeroTech RMS-R/C 24-20/40 hardware.

MRC:

Several people on computer networks have questioned the continued participation of MRC in the model rocketry market. Based on this, NAR S&T has investigated, contacting the manufacturer directly. We can report the folllowing:

MRC intends to stay in the model rocket business. Even if they ceased production today, they have enough motors in stock to supply rocketeers at current usage rates through the end of the calendar year, which is halfway into the next contest year. Therefore, MRC motors remain certified for contest and general use.

Those individuals having difficulty obtaining MRC products from their usual sources may contact MRC's subsidiary, Alltech Marketing in Edison, NJ at:

(908) 248-8738 (Consumers)
(800) 333-3692 (Dealers, only)
