Aerotech and Estes both have a F50-4t. All I can find in conflicting information. Are they the same motor? Anyone going to be selling an Aerotech F50 at MHM or got one they want to part with for a price? Hobby town has a couple of the Estes ones, I just don’t want to pay the Hazmat fee to order ones online.

The way I understood it, Aerotech was making them for Estes (private label) but I also heard Estes was working on making new Black Powder motors although I’m doubtful F and G’s in BP would work. Not sure how many F’s I have in stock – most went away to TARC Teams.

Thanks Joe. I ran Rocksim with the Estes ones and it worked fine. I picked 2 of them up at Hobbytown. WIll probably need to buy some igniters for them from you.
