Well yesterday I launched my first Aerotech RMS (29/40-120 casing). It was a G65-10W reload kit. I used the new Aerotech DDT (Delay Drilling Tool) to remove 6 seconds (used the -8 sec end, with washer +2 sec= -6 sec), to leave me with a 4 second delay. Everything went fine, except it appeared that shortly (like 1/2 second max) after it quit burning and went to trailing smoke, the ejection charge went off. It did not reach apogee and was moving full speed, but luckily, no damage to the rocket, but I'm trying to figure out if I did anything wrong. I again reviewed all instructions and haven't found I did anything incorrect. Anyone have ideas or have the same experience?
