First launch o' me full scale Hellfire rocket at MDRA Higgs Farm. Avast! This was a 58 pound rocket - 50 lbs which be in t' nosecone for stability - it is a missile design afterall. Begad! This first launch was on an AMW L1080 Blue Baboon motor. Well, blow me down! There was an early ejection o' t' main chute durin' first launch. I believe subsequent launches utilized stronger shear pins as that 50 lb nosecone has a lot o' forward momentum!
