Model rocket engines are one of the most exciting components of model rocketry. These motors allow rockets to reach high speeds and soar through the sky. The choice of engine for model rockets depends on the size, weight and flight objectives of the rocket. Different engine classes offer different thrusts and burn times. For example, a class A engine will have less thrust than a class B engine. Therefore, care must be taken in deciding which engine to choose.
Model rocket motors are usually solid-fuel motors that provide lift and propulsion of rockets through the air. These engines run on solid fuels, usually containing nitrocellulose, black powder or other chemical components.
The working principle of a model rocket engine is simple. Fuel burns inside the engine, producing a large amount of gas. This gas is ejected rapidly out of the nozzle and this movement generates the thrust needed to propel the rocket forward. According to Newton’s laws of motion, the thrust generated by the engine causes the rocket to accelerate forward.
Model rocket motors can be easily purchased through our website. You can also find them in hobby shops and some toy stores. However, we always recommend buying from trusted and authorized dealers.
Yes, there are also liquid fuel and hybrid engines for model rockets. At ABRA Space, we are currently only working on solid propellant rocket motor technologies.
The burn time of a model rocket motor varies depending on the type and class of the motor. Combustion times for each engine are indicated on our website.
Yes, model rocket motors also have a shelf life. However, this may vary depending on storage conditions and the date of manufacture of the motor. You can find storage recommendations on our website.
Yes, model rockets use specially built solid fuel motors, which are sold on our website. These engines contain special components and ensure safe operation of the rocket.
When used properly, model rocket motors are safe. However, improper handling and storage conditions can lead to potential hazards. Visit our website for safety recommendations.
Model rocket motors should be stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. They should also be kept out of the reach of children and pets. For more storage recommendations, see our website.
