I bet that felt good. I made the mistake of trying mine indoors. (Christmas gift... It was cold outside.) It went full throttle into a kitchen cabinet and I was making my first repair seconds after turning it on.

These restrictions are excessive. Model rocketry is still permitted with less restriction and those are not even piloted. Once the igniter is pressed anything can happen.

Especially when the guided ones have cameras on them. I fully expect some redneck to start taking pop-shots at anything I try to fly in my backyard.

Check you current HVAC system so you get the right capacitor, I have three heat pumps, two of the three are the same and the third is for my pool which is why I have a couple of spares instead of just one. It is the most common failure in the units that I am aware of so having the spare that I bought for a reasonable price saves me the cost of a service visit as well as over paying for the one on the guys truck.
Hard start kits used to be on all the units a long time ago, I now have one permanently on my pool heat pump because just regular capacitors wouldn't do it for some reason. They have to be the right one for your unit but once again cost about $10 and if for some reason it goes out at the beginning of a holiday weekend (everytime I have an HVAC issue) I can get and keep my unit running without a service call at emergency rates.
You don't want to know how many spare parts I have for the pool one/
I think my wife can rebuild it blindfolded
