I think that this should be folded into the initial thread that ClaytonBirchenough started in 2013 to maintain complete history. But I'm open to the other way since Rick is from SS. I also noticed that Rick has posted duplicates into the following threads as well (https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=42548.msg1771855#msg1771855) and (https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=33794.msg1771864#msg1771864).
Instant on sugar PVC rocket motormojaverocketsPublished on Jan 31, 20183" ( 75 mm ) sugar propellant PVC motor case rocket. Chris has been working on 3 and 4" ( 75 & 100 mm ) sugar motors as a possible strap-on booster for the Sugar Shot to Space project with the goal of reaching space on a rocket powered by sugar propellant. Since the rocket is unguided, the strap-on boosters in development will have to have instant ignition and uniform thrust & burn times.
CATO in this context? (JATO is Jet Assisted Take Off but I am at a loss)
