Flight Description:
B6-4 and the new AstroCam Universal. There is a reason that the instructions recommend this camera for larger body tubes. The weight and drag caused an erratic flight path. Motor blew out at ejection and chute didn't open. It deployed, but didn't open. Fortunately the rocket landed in a bush and saved everything! On-board footage was fantastic.
