What people don't understand is it doesn't matter how big the packaging is, they can still only legally put a certain amount of powder in it, for it to be legally sold. Therefore bigger isn't always better and it goes for the same on mortars. What you want to look at is the powder amount. But they are all fun and exciting. Good video...

I used to build model rockets in the 70's when I was a young teen, and I had a connection for quarter sticks of dynamite. These had wicks on the and, not the center. I installed the firecracker in the rocket, with the wick right up in and against a D-size rocket engine. When the rocket got to it's max flight height, it would blow out the other end to deploy a parachute. That's what would ignite the quarter stick. Super loud . Back then, quarter sticks were powerful. They had no writing on them, totally bootlegged. I got them for 2 for a buck or so. They could blow stop signs right off the pole. lol

To me the Hellcat looked to be about the same size shell just in a bigger plastic casing and has a larger stick. If you took the bigger nose cone off the Hellcat and put it on the same size stick as the Crazy Frog I don't think it would be all that much bigger. Just my opinion though.

Each rocket came with its signature black wooden stick and a bold white fuse. Priced at 1500 NOK ($150) a piece back in the 90’s these rockets were worth every single krone, and detonated with a earth-shaking blast.

I don’t trust some of those larger canister type consumer rockets. Oftentimes it’s a smaller shell loaded in a big package. Plastic wrapped rockets tend to be this way a lot from my experience but they all are kinda susceptible. My test it to give the sides of the header a semi-tight squeeze w/your fingertips and if it starts to give way a bit then you know it’s a smaller shell nested inside with some air in between the packaging and it.

Those aren't bad, but that's a LOT of plastic. My guess is that's a ball inside there; probably better to rip the wrapping off those. My bet is the Hellcat is almost twice the price of the Xtremes, which means you're far better off getting the Xtreme "Crazy Frogs" if you need rockets so badly. Concerned Xtremes probably run $20+ a pack but the breaks _are_ nice so might be worth it?

The fuse is folded in half and should be straightened before lighting. One end will be loose. The larger rockets usually contain a ball shell. Sometimes, a big rocket will only have a 2.5-inch shell and paper padding. They're made big to encourage sales. They are often not much better than a medium-sized rocket.
