Introduction
The PASCO ME-6617 Rocket Engine Test Bracket is
designed for use with the PASCO CI-6537 Force Sensor
and a PASCO computer interface to determine the

model rocket engines
(series A D). By permitting the measurement of the
impulse of an Estes model rocket engine, the Rocket
Engine Test Bracket can augment rocketry studies, such
as those detailed in the Estes Educator
