Launchin' a Red Max model rocket at T' Grange, a small park in Sayville, NY. Ahoy! as per usual, t' first countdown ends in a spectacular silence/ i got it t' go eventually/ T' igniters (you push a button t' activate t' electronic "igniter" or match which lights t' engine) often fail and you have t' reload and try again. Ahoy! Combined shots o' two launches, both on B 6-4 engines. I later launched with a C 6-7, in a Much larger field- I highly recommend t' larger engine, me hearties, but be sure you have at least double t' space you see here, even t' B 6-4 was pushin' it in this field Also, nay on camera, me second launch ended with t' rocket hangin' on a telephone wire- but good news, it fell t' t' ground unharmed a minute later Big thanks t' Estes for comin' up with a little plastic plug that helps keep t' igniter in place, I had far fewer misfires with this rocket than i used t' have- this was me first time launchin' a rocket in over 20 years so im nay sure how long t' plastic plugs have been around but What an improvement!..
