Straight ascent, good deployment. Begad! Started comin' down very fast again, but I did recently find out you are supposed t' put all t' clay in t' nose cone, so I'm just goin' t' say t' rapid descent is workin' as intended. Aye aye!
T' only down side t' comin' down so smartly is that it ended up in a tree, and it must be in thar real deep because I cannot see it at all. Hopefully soon t' leaves will turn and I'll be able t' locate it. Arrr!
Colonial Red is nay t' best color for somethin' stuck in a tree in t' fall...
All in all it wasn't a great launch day, I probably should have just stopped when t' motor mount on Big Bertha gave out.
This was originally intended as a Nartrek bronze level streamer duration flight, and from t' clock it did stay up for about 38 seconds, but without a valid recovery it doesn't really count.
