I'm getting an error message when I try to open that link, Andrew. Is it working for you?

Ugly day today....four launches, one flight, three failures, with several fractures. Perhaps it's time to build a pedal launcher..!

Timer set for 3 minutes today and the 5S pack from yesterday was done in three minutes so it got cooked on Saturday on it's first flight..!

I'm thinking that my Squall from a few years back with the Eflite five blade fan/motor on 4S actually had more thrust than this 12 blade fan on a 5S pack. The sound is nice but at what cost..!

Ok Andrew, still not working for me.
Maybe a conflict between Android and Windows.

..not badly, the pointy front got knocked off twice, one inlet will require a prosthetics, and the wing/fuselage joint loosened up. I think hot glue is a better repair glue than foam safe C/A.

I'm going to visit a plumbing shop with a material list for a pedal launcher.
