Hello.

I found all my old rockets (20+ years ago) from when I was younger, and
have gotten my boys into rocketry.

I was disappointed to see that not much has changed in the way of
smaller rockets (1/2A - D size engine rockets) other than scale models
seem to be harder to find. I was hoping at least to see coloured exhaust
from the engines, but Estes rockets still seem to be the same as 20+
years ago.

Are there any engines out there that emit coloured exhaust? It would
make things more exiting for my kids.

Certainly AeroTech, AMW and CTI do coloured exhaust/flame.

CTI/AMW ones start at G, not sure whether the Aerotech Redline stuff is
available in D-F

As for BP motors nothing that i'm aware of :-(

Aerotech has the Redline in F, also look for the 'Mojave Green' for a
bright green flame.
