Comments
I have 2 motors from this bulk pack that had defective nozzles. This motor appeared to have only a "slight" nozzle defect: slight loss of nozzle material. Small crease where nozzle material was absent. It was sufficient to be be defective. Rocket flew to 280' then crashed before ejection charge fired.
