I was practicing flights on my main rocket that I was planning on using for my L1 cert March 23 I watch your videos and red the manufacturer instructions very carefully, I picked cesaroni for it simplicity but today the rocket never left the pad. G78bs 1grain took 9 secs off the delay reassembled the motor with apportate spacer, on the pad the ejection charge shot up thru the rocket the motor destroyed the areo pack retention
system and it came out of the rocket. The delay grain was not burn the delay charge was gone but does not look like it ignited. The grain was also shoved into the spacer. I guess I am just dumb founded how this happened. If you have time to let me know if there is something obvious I missed that caused this failure please let me know. I attached a picture of the pieces. I cut the case in half to attempt to recover the spacer and get the motor liner and grain and gain mor insight since case was a total loss, space is still stuck it's not coming out.
