Thrust Profile (N)

1.80s Burn Window

Engineered by AeroTech, the I180W is a 38mm solid rocket motor designed for high-power rocketry (HPR). As an official I-class motor, it delivers a total impulse of 326.0 Ns over a 1.80 second burn window.

With an average thrust of 180.0 N and a peak of 362.0 N, it features a dual-peak thrust curve optimal for heavy rockets requiring high off-the-pad acceleration. It utilizes the White Lightning propellant formulation, dictating its specific impulse and exhaust signature.
