From the lunar lander project perspective everything on Saturday went perfectly. The systems all worked as designed, we had no frozen vales, instrumentation or computer problems all of that was flawless.
The real story is we were testing an older engine design that used a pyrotechnic igniter and we and that failed to get it lit. So some time in the next 24 hours I'll post a very boring video of Lox and alcohol coming out of a motor in unburned form.
If we had more Lox we would have tested again, but we were using the left over Lox that had been delivered for a different project. By the time they were done there was less left than expected. My son was very disappointed we did a lot of work and got no flames, booms or other intersting pyrotechnics. I was happy with the result because the components of the test that apply to the XPC project all worked flawlessly.
Here is the test video, kind of boring, I've also uploaded an unrelated video of other rocket things...
