Q-Jet™ rocket motors use the same family of solid composite propellant as NASA’s Space Shuttle boosters, sounding rockets and military missiles. All Q-Jet™ motors ship with FirstFire Micro™ initiators for lift-off reliability, plus bright orange recovery wadding for three exciting flights.
Some assembly required and instructions for assembly and use included. You should be ready to launch in 30 to 45 minutes. Packaged in a sturdy reusable range operations box.
