Bulk packs are vaporware

It's nice to see these engines back in production after a half year, but bulk packs still remain out of stock yet are listed on your web page.

Impressive

One of these threw a 3D printed rocket I designed to about 1400 ft. It was still headed upwards when the ejection charge fired! Came back in one piece, too. I have never flown anything larger than a D engine prior to this, but I will absolutely be buying more of these.

Double check the engine number!

Bought the wrong engines and you can’t return them by mail. Double check which ones you need!
