Has anyone seen the gas/peroxide motor in flight???
9 sec burn motor @ 5K altitude.... Any concerns in regards to launching one at YOUR launch site?? Any specific launch concerns for the RSO/LCO?Bill

Simply put, it's not covered by the NAR or TRA safety code, therefore not allowed at a TRA or NAR sanctioned launch.

They allow a bunch of other stuff in violation of the safety code (NFPA-1122/25/27).
Certainly not NAR. Is it ok for TRA / EX?
Once again you prove yourself an ignotant asshole.
Ya Jerry but you really need to see one of these gizmos go. We had a co-op student try one here during his stint. The funny part was the leaky check valves and the propeller heads running for the door with it. It also makes a big purple mess. It contains gasoline, low test peroxide (50%), dry ice, potassium permanganate, APCP and the hardware is quite interesting. I forgot how they got it to light but it was a long count.
It scared me and I'm fearless, well almost.

Nope, no liquids other than nitrous are allowed, I don't believe.
-Kevin
That alone should increase sales among experienced motor makers so they too can experience fear.
APCP is wayyy too safe :)
Jerry
Wouldn't it qualify as EX? Tripoli does allow EX.
Randy
That's why our APCP propellant facilities are remotely controlled, located well away from the main building and surrounded by earthen berms. :-)

Nope, no liquids. No Black Powder either.
EX just started to allow Suger motors, last year they were a bozo nono as well.
Liquids , that would be real , old fashioned butt ripping AR.
Do you have evidence of said allegations?
Liqued motors are allowed at BALLS with pre-approval of the BoD:
I've seen it. My impression is that it's an expensive novelty, best suited to those who prefer to spend more time tinkering with fussy stuff than actually flying rockets. It helps if you have lots of money burning a hole in your pocket.

MANY examples posted to rmr in the past 5 years. ALL of which you (and most TRA lackeys) have disregarded.
One would think you (and they) would at least agree with (and address and correct) ONE of them (or more), perhaps one the TMT chair himself brought up. But no. Not ONE.
That is a consistent record. :)

Stop grinding your AP, Use more rubber, and use alot less catalysts and additives :)

Oh, that's rich. The huge multinational manufacturer being lectured by the failed "consultant" of a business with "less than two employees", who claims he farmed out all his manufacturing.

So, in fact, you do not have any factual evidence to back up your claim.
Just a lot of hot air from jerry, but no evidence.
LMAO!! This has got to be one of the funniest FAQ entries ever! It is oh-so-true, spot on, to the point. An absolute hit-the-nail-on-the-head description of Jerry Irvine.
Excellent!
Nope. "EX" is only APCP or N2O hybrid.
