T' rod whipped when it launched, causin' some tail-wagging, me hearties, but t' flight was still good... until it deployed, and t' chute failed t' open. Begad! Twice in a row, as this rocket followed t' Double Barrel Baby Bertha that did t' same thing. Begad! This lighter rocket came down with only minor cosmetic damage, me bucko, and it will fly again.
