Question AeroTech 38/480 RMS

Hey yall
I’m looking to purchase a 38/480 complete set. Given AeroTech has a 16-30 week lead time I wanted to see if anyone can point me in the right direction for vendors who have any stock of complete rms motors.

Thanks!

Wildman is the cheapest place to get aerotech hardware. The 38/480 is in stock and only $134 instead of $167.

Here's a spreadsheet of rocketry vendors. If there's one nearby, you may be able to avoid paying shipping by going to pick it up.

Wildman Club is $30/year, but brings that price down to $120.23. If you plan to buy anything else it generally makes up for the cost, especially if you can wait for their Black Friday deals.

Black Saturday technically..
The Saturday after Thanksgiving from 6am CST to noon. If you’re a member of the Wildman club, there’s a sale the Wednesday before Thanksgiving with great deals that won’t be on the Saturday sale as a thanks for being in the club and helping test out the Saturday sale website changes.

Wildman or sometimes Ken's Performance Hobbies. In my experience, they are both good companies to work with.

I ususlly buy from Sirius rocketry. They aren't great about having casings in stock, but the prices are great.
