Ejection Charge Testing
Tested out the Perfect flite CF altimeter and ejection charge!
Loaded 1.5g of FFFFg black powder into the forward payload bay containing the main parachute.
Rear booster bay charge was loaded only with an igniter to ensure continuity and that it would ignite with the altimeter.
Sealed up 2 of 3 AV bay vent holes, applied vacuum and pop!
Here's the video: Stealth Ejection Charge Test
Looking good for first flight next weekend!
