If a misfire occurs, remove the key from the launch controller and wait one minute before approaching the rocket. Disconnect the micro-clips, remove the engine, and discard the used starter. Install a new starter, ensuring the tip touches the propellant, and attempt the launch again.
For balsa wood and paper body tubes, yellow wood glue is recommended. For kits containing plastic parts, use plastic cement or a CA (cyanoacrylate) adhesive as specified in the instructions.
The required field size depends on the engine size. Generally, a field of at least 500 feet (152 meters) square is recommended for smaller engines (Class A/B), while larger engines require significantly more space, up to 1000 feet square, to ensure safe recovery.
Recovery wadding is flame-resistant paper inserted into the body tube between the engine and the parachute. It protects the recovery system specifically from the hot ejection gases produced during the flight sequence.
Date codes are often found on the decals or the packaging. It is recommended to record this date in your instruction manual for future reference regarding warranty or support.
