Except now Rocksim says it's too heavy to get off the pad. My own sim tool says thrust-to-weight is just too feeble for any mini motor. I could cut out the mini mount and put in a standard, and then the CG/CP relationship goes wrong again.

I think I fold. Pics still coming, but it's going to be a hangar chin.

Oh, you're in Nevada. You should have plenty of space to keep from hitting anything, and the altitude is park-flyer level. I counsel launch. Grip and rip.
