XPort Test 10-08-07

This is a small model rocket being fired via the X Port on a HobbyZone Firebird Freedom RC airplane. I built my own circuit to capture X Port signals and fire two relays attached to rocket igniters.
The circuit fires one rocket per keypress so you will see a delay in the video because I had forgot I had loaded the rocket on the #2 rail.
The circuit also cuts the engine for the one second time interval that the igniter is energized to make sure there is ample current available to set off the fuse.

Duration : 0:1:0
