As you may have already heard, some Aerotech motors are being discontinued.
Pre-orders are open now through April 15th. After that, we cannot guarantee any availability.
All orders placed will be fulfilled from this final batch, which Aerotech expects to ship as they become available over the next year, as late as April 2027.
AeroTech G38-7FJ 29mm x 124mm Single Use 1-Motor Pack - 73807
These high performance, composite propellant model rocket motors use the same family of solid propellant as NASA’s Space Shuttle Boosters, military missiles, sounding rockets, and NASA’s future SLS moon rocket. They utilize a patent pending high-strength polymer case and bulkhead, polymer nozzle and RCSs exclusive Black Max™ aerospace grade composite propellant formulation, which produces a visible black exhaust plume and a denser dark tracking smoke. Black Max™ motors provide a higher level of thrust than White Lightning™ motors of the same total impulse and are perfect for high lift-off acceleration.
This AeroTech motor pack comes with 1 rocket motor and 1 FirstFire™ Jr. Initiator. Requires HAZMAT shipping via UPS or FEDEX. The sale of this high power motor to persons under 18 years of age is currently prohibited by federal law. Orders containing this item will not be shipped until proof of age (such as a copy of a driver’s license) is received.
Certified by the Tripoli Rocketry Association (TRA), the National Association of Rocketry (NAR) and the Canadian Association of Rocketry (CAR).
