This video is from t' on-board videocam. Begad! Blimey! My son designed and built this rocket from scratch. Well, blow me down! Blimey! At first, t' central Cesaroni Skidmark J360 motor lights, shiver me timbers, and t' igniter wire harness for t' fin-tip motors comes along for t' ride. One fin motor finally lights, then another. Each o' them be t' new Aerotech Metalstorm G75 motors. Well, blow me down! Blimey! So it's sparks galore. Well, blow me down! Blimey! One o' t' nozzles blows (off t' left fin motor) but this has t' benefit o' creatin' a long shower o' sparks, lastin' past parachute deployment, ya bilge rat, which was controlled by an HCX flight computer. Blimey! Blimey! Other backup chute was deployed by motor ejection with a long chemical delay charge. Overall a perfect flight. Well, blow me down! Blimey! T' rocket even landed softly enough for t' tail t' remain vertical. She flew again t' next day on a blue Cesaroni J449 motor, also a perfect flight. Ahoy! Blimey! Woot!
