I am using the motor class "H150" as a nice round number to compare engine
types.
Question: What is the average loaded weight of an H150 for various
types/brands of motors?
Do not count the added ejection charge/apparatus, (as using altimeter based ejection scenario). Do not count any rocket airframe or motor retention gear. DO count in the weight of the motor casing container if using a reloadable type engine.
a) Nitrous Hybrid engine b) Jerry-motor c) Aerotech single use d) Aerotech RMS e) RattWorks Hybrid f) any other motor that might compete for low-weight
Basically, I would like to know generally what brand of motor has the best thrust to weight ratio. As I have only used Aerotech and Estes lines up to this date, I do not know the qualities of other motors. I don't have data in RocSim on some of these motors.
TIA
