First time usin' a S/U Aerotech F27-8R Redline motor. Ya scallywag! Rocket lept off t' pad trailin' a bright red plume and shot high into t' sky. Begad! Love these redline motors. Begad! T' 8 second delay is a bit on t' long side. Rocket dropped fast after apogee before deployin' parachute but recovered without any zipperin' or any other damage about 1/4 mile down range.
