The AeroTech Reloadable Motor System RMS is an aluminum cased reusable motor in kit form that is assembled by the user. You will need AeroTech RMS-54/2560 motor hardware to build and complete the motor for many reliable flights. Motor hardware is available separately in a complete set, and also as individual parts. This motor requires installing a forward seal disc (54FSD) during assembly. Important: High Power RMS reload kits are not compatible with Mid Power RMS products. 

The K480W-PS is a Plugged/Smoke motor reload. Plugged reload kits do not utilize a motor-actuated delay or ejection charge. Plugged motors must be used in conjunction with a timer, altimeter or radio-activated recovery system.

This RMS motor reload utilizes RCSs exclusive White Lightning™ aerospace grade composite propellant formulation, which produces a gorgeous bright white flame with lots of dense white smoke and a throaty roar at lift-off.

The AeroTech motor reload kit comes with 1 rocket motor reload. Reload kits include all internal motor components and FirstFire™ Initiators. Requires HAZMAT shipping via UPS or FEDEX. The sale of this high power motor to persons under 18 years of age is currently prohibited by federal law. This is a High-Power motor requiring Level 2 High-Power certification through NAR or Tripoli to purchase. Orders containing this item will not be shipped until proof of age (such as a copy of a driver’s license) and proof of Level 2 certification is received.

Certified by the Tripoli Rocketry Association (TRA), the National Association of Rocketry (NAR) and the Canadian Association of Rocketry (CAR).

Abigail ★★★★★

Assembled this kit for my RMS-54/2560 hardware and the parts fit together without any slop or guesswork. The grains slid in clean and the closures lined up on the first try, which isn't always the case with reloads.

Isabella ★★★★★

The aluminum casing feels rock solid when you're screwing it together, and the whole reload went together cleanly without any finicky alignment. First flight with this RMS-54/2560 kit punched through the clouds like nothing, and cleanup afterward was just a quick rinse of the case. Absolutely worth

Aurora ★★★★★

Finally got around to loading this reload kit into my 54/2560 casing and the fit was spot on, no forcing or filing needed. The delay grain and propellant went together cleanly, and my first flight off the pad was textbook stable. This is my go-to pack for mid-power launches now.
