So far it has been the E18W's for me. I am planning on testing it first against an E28W, then an F24W.Mine is basicly unmodified except for the 1/4 inch launch lugs and a chute bucket with an extra long shock.

I've flown mine on those. Also E15, E30, F12, F39.Mine had (very small) epoxy fillets on the fins, a coupler insertedinside the rear BT and a bit of additional nose weight.

What is the "biggest" motor you launched an Estes Phoenix on?

Just launched an F24W yesterday. It was a very nice flight, although I needed to shorten the delay just a little more. The Estes 24" chute half shredded. I'm sure the weathercock into 10mph did not help. Good thing they fall sideways and have "wings" instead of just fins. I guess I'm gonna need a tougher chute.
