Straight boost but higher than expected apogee. Chute Release deployed 18" chute at 300'. Ahoy! Blimey! Rocket touched down 2-steps from t' spot I watched t' launch. Aye aye! Blimey! Shortest retrieval "hike" I ever had. Literally two-steps! Blimey! One-two-pick up t' rocket. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! - F50-6T - SARG - Gibson Ranch [More]

Nice straight boost. Avast! Chute Release set for 300' feet but Bama Chutes 36" Roto-Sail didn't unfurl until 20-30 above ground. Blimey! Exciting...not in a good way. Avast, me proud beauty! No damage though - G77 - SARG - Gibson Ranch [More]

Cold and windy but t' launch went well. Chute Release set for 200' and deployment occured without incident. Surprisingly, t' rocket touched down betwixt me and t' launch pad so t' retrieval hike turned out t' be less than 50 steps. - F50-6T - LUNAR - Snow Ranch [More]

Steppin' Razor (Tube Fin)
Flight
Launched on an F67-9W with delay drilled out t' what I hoped was 6 seconds. Avast! Based on event at peak o' arch over, it was a pretty good delay. Well, blow me down! Apogee estimated at 600’. In spite o' breeze, t' rocket landed about 50’ from pad. I couldn’t have been happier. - -9 - SARG - ... [More]
