First use of the Loki 38-240 case. Used motor eject as backup. Eject occurred during motor burn on the way up. Rocket was 2 for 2 on early deployment today. No damage.
Inspected afterwards and delay o-rings showed burn marks on the ID from blow by. Perhaps user error in installing delay. Got a tip from another snapring case flier on a better way to install the delay o-rings.
