Works Great, Lost the Launch Key
The launch controller key doesn't have a good way to tether it to the controller. I lost the launch key pretty shortly after using the controller a few times. Had to find something else to stick in the hole. Otherwise, I have never had any trouble with this controller. The cables are much longer and much beefier than they were when I flew rockets as a kid in the 90s.

Works as expected
I bought this to ignite the E motors in my mean machine rocket. Worked like a charm on E and D motors.

Houston we have a problem
I am just getting into model rocketry. Now I bought this with the hopes keeping the little ones included, I want them to have an interest in science. Since I bought the unit the picture was updated. The previous pic made it look like I was buying something from NASA or SPACE X surplus. I am honestly disappointed in the quality, and it not looking like the previous pic they had up. Like I said trying to keep the kids interested. The unit works about half the time. I would not purchase again. I couldmakee made one my self that works better.

TRIM THE RUBBER STOPPER ON THE KEY
If your controller doesn't work try trimming about 30% (and up to 50%) off the rubber stopper on the key. The key can then be inserted that much further to make its connection. I had to do this to what was an very dead controller and now works a treat.
