The paper deals with development of wax fuel grain for testing of small hybrid rocket motor. The possible wax composition is selected as solid fuel which in combination with nitrous oxide as oxidizer creates hybrid propellant. Rotary casting system specially developed for this case and wax grain manufacturing is described. The first practice with such hybrid rocket motor testing is introduced.
