The rocket will be powered by a M1230 from Cesaroni, which was chosen for several reasons. First, we determined that any M motor would be more powerful than necessary for the given weight and desired apogee <math>\sim</math> , however, the additon of sand weights would allow us to reach this altitude while staying subsonic. Second, this is a 75mm M motor which will allow us sufficient room on the exterior of a 98-75mm motor adapter to fill with sand.

The rocket will be powered by a M1230 from Cesaroni, which was chosen for several reasons. First, it allows us to attain our desired apogee ~ 10,000ft, and second, this is a 75mm M motor which will allow us sufficient room on the exterior of a 98-75mm motor adapter to mount our static stability fins.
