OK, this image doesn't look so spectacular.  But realize this is a 24 gram rocket (less than 1 oz.), and is being lifted by an A10. It accelerates so quickly off the pad that this is the first semi-clear image I got of this bird after a lot of attempts.  By the time it was at the top of the rod, it was heavily blurred.  The on-board accelerometer can't even measure the speed increase because it is beyond the 24 G measurement range.
