Learn step-by-step how to assemble and fly the AeroTech RMS-29 G25W White Lightning reload kit, with tips to avoid common mistakes.

Quick answer

Assemble your AeroTech RMS-29 G25W reload kit by checking the delay element and insulator fit, then follow the standard RMS-29 reload procedure. Proper prep prevents ejection charge leaks and ensures consistent flight.

Why the delay kit matters

The AeroTech RMS-29 G25W uses a 10-second adjustable delay element. The CRDK29-05 kit includes the delay element, insulators, and spacers. If you skip the spacer check, the delay may not seat correctly, causing early or late ejection.

What the G25W White Lightning delivers

This reload produces a bright white flame and a moderate thrust curve, ideal for mid-power rockets weighing up to about 1.5 lb. The 29mm hardware is reusable, so the reload kit is the only consumable after each flight.

Assembly and flight steps

  1. 1. Inspect the delay kit parts: Open the CRDK29-05 package and verify you have the delay element, insulators, and spacers. Compare them to the motor hardware diagram. Missing or wrong parts cause ejection failure. Do not skip this check.
  2. 2. Install the delay element: Slide the delay element into the forward closure. Add the required insulator and spacer to achieve the desired delay time (refer to the table on the package). Over-tightening can crack the delay element. Finger-tighten only.
  3. 3. Assemble the reload motor: Follow the standard RMS-29 reload procedure: insert the propellant grain, o-rings, and nozzle. Then attach the forward closure with the delay assembly. Lubricate o-rings lightly to prevent tearing during assembly.
  4. 4. Load the motor into the rocket: Place the assembled motor into the motor mount tube. Ensure the retention clip or screw is secure. A loose motor can shift during boost. Double-check retention before launch.
  5. 5. Prepare for launch: Install the igniter per the instructions, connect to the launch system, and verify the delay setting matches your desired ejection altitude. Test the ejection charge by dry-fitting the delay assembly before the actual flight.
