More Definitions of Model rocket
Model rocket means a rocket that is propelled by one or more model rocket motors and that has a total installed impulse of 160 N-s or less. (Note: changing the definition from 80 to 160 N-s affects the definition "model rocket"/"modèle réduit de fusée" in the Canadian Aviation Regulations, which states "means a rocket (a) equipped with model rocket engines that will not generate a total impulse exceeding 80 N-s (b) of a gross weight, including engines, not exceeding 500 g; and (c) equipped with a parachute or other device capable of retarding its descent." The Can. Aviation Regs have to be amended to follow new definition of model rocket -- less than 160 N-s, etc. [Client has agreed to speak to Transport Canada in this regard.)
