Sounds like an easy way to get J-class motors without any STINKIN' HP certification.
They should offer delay/ejection modules for them.
One should be able to touch one of these off in their backyard if one wants to.
NO PERMANENT DEFINABLE DIRECT HARM=NO FOUL !

Not saying one SHOULD do this, but looks like one COULD
Order a K340W thruster
Pay the Hazmat fee
Receive it without certification
Scratch build a high drag oddroc with a 54mm motor mount
(Like an upscale Rocketarium Turbo Vortico with helicopter recovery)
Wrap a thrust ring on the end with 1/4" masking tape
Let er rip
No delay or ejection charge needed
Looks like the store is in Utah.
Wonder how long before the Feds shut it down.

FAA Class G airspace (uncontrolled) is up to 1200 AGL almost everywhere except right near a controlled airport. I think there it is still 800 AGL. Pretty sure any saucer style vehicle would stay well below that as well as typical BDR rockets.

I commented on this when it was first announced and later defended by the company on TRF and YORF to a far lesser degree.

That's the same site as from 2015. It hasn't moved or been updated (other than the copyright date which is always the current year). You are seeing what was displayed by the old URL. None of the products listed on the page are available for purchase.

Copyright is effective the first year of use and extends the life of the author plus a bunch of years like 50-100. So the tool is being misused by the web designer if it updates annually.
