  how do you get a hold of Dave Trino? Kosdon was working on an old case of 
mine before he passed and I'm wondering if he has it

    Im not sure if Frank changed the parts for his Kosdon 75/7600, but the 
motor I got from Dave Trino, who inherited Franks stuff, sold me a Kosdon 
75/7600 complete motor for $275.00 and it has a black anodize forward closure 
and uses a thrust ring on the outside of the case, and from what Jack has told 
me, I have the older Kosdon East motor which uses the thrust ring groove and 
has a AMW forward closure and nozzle,  but i don't know what changes Frank made 
after those.  I have some of Franks  54mm motors with and without the thrust 
ring groove, so i dont know if he made any 75mm motor casings without the 
thrust ring.    but looking at the Aerotech KBA instructions for the Aerotech 
KBA M1450W  it showed this:


     

    USE ONLY KBA RELOAD KITS AND MOTOR PARTS TO REFURBISH

    YOUR KOSDON OR ANIMAL MOTOR. The KBA reload kits have been

    designed specifically for use in your particular Kosdon or Animal motor. Use

    of imitation components may destroy your motor, rocket and payload and

    will invalidate your motor warranty. Only use KBA reload kits intended for

    your specific Kosdon or Animal motor. DO NOT INTERCHANGE PARTS!

    Do not use KBA reload kits or motor components for any other purpose than

    to refurbish an Kosdon or Animal motor.

     

    so its showing that it should only be used with Kosdon or AMW motors and 
not just only for AMW.   I don't know if Frank made changes to his 75/7600 and 
changed the nozzle and forward closure.   Maybe you seen different ones?

    Well, it may "go into" the Kosdon TRM case at a research launch  but it is 
only certified with the AMW nozzle and bulkhead.  I think a lot of people get 
confused by the KBA label thinking the Animal Compatable reloads can go in 
either Kosdon or AMW hardware and be certified but they aren't.

    Just to clarify the M1450 is a KBA "Animal Compatible" and goes in the AMW 
7600 case with a reusable nozzle.  One nice thing about the AMW case is that it 
is great for EX motors.  It seems like a great deal to me.

    I would use a Kosdon by Aerotech 75/7600 , M1450 its 7813.0Ns motor and was 
use to set the M altitude record, its more powerful than the M1850W  7658.6Ns.  
and for around 299.00  its about a hundred dollars cheaper than the M1850W

    The AeroTech M1850W is no puss motor for the 75/7680.  It lofted my 
Performance Rocketry Competitor 4 to 18,600 feet.

    But just leave that 75mm motor mount out of the Intimidator 4, make it a 
minimum diameter, and fly it on an M750W 8^D

            It has to fly on puss motors. It has a 75mm mount. 

     

            The Intimidator 5 and the Competitor 5 both have 98mm holes in the 
bottom. 

     

            They take real motors. 8^)

      Yes as long as you don’t fly it on any puss motor

2 TAP’s to do my L3?
