Description

Not sure what to call this flight since it NEVER left the pad. The motor was an old Gorilla Green I223 (11 years old). Took 2 attempts to light but when it eventually did the motor took about 5 minutes to completely burn. Fuel was crap, just didn't want to burn. It was a 1.4 second burn. You can see in one pic that there is a green flame but so tiny. Because of the problem with this motor, I did a static test with another green which took 3 attempts to light but did burn as expected for the most part.
