Great boost, straight, fast and loud off the rail on a big white flame/smoke trail. Arcing over into the wind at the top of the climb. Good drogue deploy at apogee, rocket moving pretty fast in the wind at altitude. Good main at 500 feet. Long recovery walk, landed on the field with about 40 yards to spare before the trees, no damage. Bottom of the tube fins are really starting to show some wear, but overall they are still structurally sound.
