[amsat-bb] Re: Model Rocket Booster Engine for Picosatellite

David; There are some much bigger motors! Ask the Level-3 rocketry folks! Anyway a cluster of medium sized motors could be fired individually as required to raise altitude. I would think that SRB's would be more reliable and safer than hypergolic used on previous Oscars. There would of course be a lot of heat in the rocket casings that would need to be dissipated.
