You can end--burn APCP (Ammonium Perchlorate Composite Propellant) and get low-thrust rocket motors.
You can only core-burn KNO3/Sugar or KNO3/Epoxy motors and expect any sort of aprreciable thrust. The amount of thrust and burn time can be adjusted by core geometry and nozzle size.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC !
