12/2016 First flight with a B engine went great; I would recommend this mod. I added back t' clay I took out (so I've used t' entire package) and its flight was stable.
11/2016 Every flight thus far has arced over and deployed inches above t' ground. A10 engines apparently are nay cuttin' it. Aye aye! I've ripped out t' engine mount and I am installin' an 18mm mount, along with some extra nose weight. Begad! Hopefully a B engine will be enough t' get this into t' air.
9/2017 Windcocked into t' ground on a B6-4. Ya scallywag! Nay goin' t' repair.
2022 flew with no repairs on a C6-3, arrr, went fine.

Ejection barely before crashing. Avast, me proud beauty! Didn't go very high, me bucko, extra-long delay. No time for chute t' open, but nose cone got out o' t' way and BT core-sampled. No damage.
