I started off with the Lunar Eclipse Jr. on an E9-6. This one, recall, flew well on its first flight about three years ago. A week later it hung up on the launch rod on the first attempt to fly it, and it was damaged in a motor cato on the second. A year later, finally repaired, it arced over for a long walk, and when I found it my reload casing was missing. And last year at NYPower after a launch failure due to shorted clips it arced over again for another long walk.

Today it went straight up, straight-ish down, and was recovered whole and undamaged. Well it’s about damn time.
