MOTOR
I used a D2.3, where Apogee recommends a D13 or D24. My first flight was with a D24.
Looking at it again, the motor burn wasn't that bad. If I had not added down trim, I might have gotten a more straight-up launch.
In my first launch, I had assumed that the erratic flight at launch was caused by something in the controls. But I was NOT using a launch rod, and I am wondering if the erratic flight was caused by a "jerk" from the igniter pulling free from the motor.
I need to reduce aileron response.
