    Super sweet! Thanks for the Shout-Out!!! I think it's great that you're working on this at the same time I'm working on Pollino's K500. Really looking forward to seeing what rocket you'll be putting this into.

    Nice bit of power happening.

    The K600 ns motor that burns longer may achieve a higher altitude depending on the rockets mass. I used to be suprised by this, but burn sim shows this to be the case. if i'm not wrong its been a while.

      You are spot on! A slower burn and airspeed allow the rocket to achieve a higher altitude. The reduced speed causes lower friction in the atmosphere.

    Can't wait to see in a rocket.

      The launch should be today, the temp is 12°F for the fire🔥and ice❄launch 🥶!

      @@TheRocketeer Sir, Can you use 80% Sorbitol and 20% Sucrose as a propellent without using Kno3 or any other chemicals for mid to high-powered rockets? I never heard it before but have seen it in one of your videos so I was curious how does that work?

      @@CodeCrafted_ The Kno3 is an oxidizer that allows the sugar to burn. It is required for this type of propellant. Potassium nitrate (Kno3) is a farm fertilizer and is used as a stump remover. It must be ground into a powder before use.

      @@TheRocketeer But there is a high-power rocket propellent called ALICE that uses Water as an oxidizer. why can't one use water as an oxidizer along with sugar or sorbitol?

    Was curious where your getting your casting sleeves ? All sizes , 29 38 , and 54 . Ty .

    That one is awesome.😃. Do you have a rocket ready for that motor?
    I learned something from watching your videos.
    Sorbitol burns a little slower than powdered sugar. I will try Sorbitol for my one inch sugar engines.
    My one inch powdered sugar engines keep blowing up. I will try Sorbitol.
    Thanks for all the info.
    I'm looking forward to seeing how high that engine sends your rocket.

      I have several videos that demonstrate how to make 1" motors with flexi-fuel, fructose, and sorbitol. It is hard to go wrong with sorbitol for fuel.
