Quest Q-Jets are the world's most advanced 18mm model rocket motors. Q-Jet™ high performance, composite propellant model rocket motors use the same family of solid propellant as NASA’s Space Shuttle Boosters, military missiles, sounding rockets, and NASA’s future SLS moon rocket. They utilize a patent pending high-strength polymer case and bulkhead, ceramic nozzle and RCSs exclusive Black Max™ aerospace grade composite propellant formulation, which produces nearly double the specific impulse (or ISP, a propellant efficiency rating) of conventional black powder propellant. They are not susceptible to thermal cycling like black powder motors. Q-Jet™ rocket motors deliver faster lift-offs, visible exhaust plume, denser dark tracking smoke & increased reliability at lift-off.

This Q-Jet™ 25-Motor Value Pack comes complete with 29 FirstFire™ Micro Initiators and bright orange Parachute Recovery Wadding. All Q-Jet™ motors are U.S. mailable with no hazmat fee!

Harper ★★★★★

Twenty-five motors in one box made running our weekend launches so much easier, and the composite propellant gives a noticeably punchier boost than the old black powder ones. The D16-6FJ delay has been spot-on for my mid-size builds, ejecting right at apogee every time.

Alexander B. ★★★★★

Twenty-five motors for what a hobby shop charges for eight made this an easy call for our launch days. The composite propellant gives a much punchier liftoff than the old black powder engines we used to run. Consistency across the whole box has been solid too.

Madison ★★★★★

Bought this 25-pack for our scout troop's launch day and every single motor lit cleanly off the included igniters. The composite propellant gives a much punchier flight than the old black powder motors we used before. Having 25 in one box meant no one had to sit out.
