Glad your motor works so well and that the paint didn’t seem to fade.  Beautiful model

You have a lot more confidence than me in the restraint system. Looks like a screwdriver angled into grass and string if I'm seeing it correctly.  Glad it held together.

ALL motors start on the first flip while you are in the backyard.

NOT ALL motors start on the first flip during an official at a contest.  y1
