I want to see the video!
Heller built a 3 grain O4700 he wanted to fly. So he called me at 8:30 last night and asked me to prep it. I got my act together and got it mostly done. Got there around 11:00 today, worked untill 3:30 and got it on the pad. Lit the candle and it was SCREAMING off the pad, 1k feet up or so and it let go. Parts were everywhere. The fins, chutes, nosecone, and electronics were all that was good. He did get the nozzle/carrier and case back but it needs to be cut down.

I read then that it WAS someone elses motor (not sure whose motor case it was - or whose rocket either).

Well, I'm sure you can advise on that...since you've been there, done that.
