Carl,

That is very interesting....

I know I have found myself in situations where I wished I had a delay between existing available delays amongst Estes/Quest motors - your example of a 5 second delay on a B impulse motor is certainly one of those.

So - I vote "yes" on question number one.

On number two....not so clear. If all goes the way you wish it to, how widely would your motors be available? The reason I ask is that I expect a bit of a difference in the willingness to be careful and pay attention (and the ability to follow directions) between those who would seek an alternative to mass-marketed motors either directly from you or from specialist dealers compared with those who might just encounter rocketry products in a mass-market type store.

You're suggesting the need for something not unlike the understanding necessary to assemble reloadable motors successfully. I wonder how much handholding Aerotech or Apogee or Cesaroni or such have to do?
