If priced same as the Estes E16, they should sell plenty.
If significantly more, not so much.

Awwww. but I *liked* that thrust curve! Of course, with the way people build rockets nowadays (HEAVY), it probably would be a bad idea. I loved the way rockets would lift off slowly on an invisible plume (not unlike the lunar module lifting off from the moon), then suddenly disappear, though if you could follow the rocket, you'd see a bright dot at the rear. https://youtu.be/FG1dxTc-C7o?t=2510 This video is of a stripped down Centuri Saturn V with a Maxi Alpha III on top, so it was much lighter than a similar sized rocket would be now. It was also on a Composite Dynamics ProJet F40, which was of similar construction to the Enerjets. It was also shot at a slightly higher frame rate
