=== Rapier === In 1998, a new non-reusable motor, called Rapier, was introduced by a Czech inventor, Dr. Jan Zigmund. It had similar weight, thrust and duration to Jetex, allowing many old plans for Jetex powered models to be built and flown with the new motors. The Rapier was a single use motor with a cardboard case and a ceramic nozzle, visually closer to a model rocket motor than the original reloadable Jetex.<ref>{{Cite web |date=May 2007 |title=Interview with Dr. Jan Zigmund |url=https://minimakety.cz/rapier/other/Interview-2007/index-en.php |access-date=10 April 2025 |website=MinimaketyCZ}}</ref>
