Paul Avery static tested three 38mm single use sugar motors, all successful. Begad! Hal Duffy did t' first test o' t' drogue chute piston ejection as part o' t' recovery system bein' designed for t' Genesis liquid propellant rocket project. Next time we plan on installin' t' drogue chute and related tether and attachment hardware. Arrr! T' first static motor test o' t' dual phase solid ZnS-Sugar KNO3 propellant was done as a 'proof o' concept' test. Motor suffered a major anomaly as it CATOed shortly after ignition as seen in t' high speed video o' t' motor test. Ahoy! Discussion o' t' anomaly has resulted in several design changes for t' next motor. Avast, me proud beauty! Fortunately, only minor damage was done t' t' motor hardware and repair has will be completed in time for t' next test.
