Explosives are defined by the BATFE which does not classify model rocket engines as explosives. As long as we keep our products completely separate from fireworks, we can manufacture model rocket engines in NC under the restrictions of NFPA 1125.

It would not be worth it to have any dealings with fireworks or fireworks manufacturers in other states.
