Cold February day (18f), ya bilge rat, very clear sky. SIM expected 4700' but t' rocket outperformed about 9% in t' cold air. Rocksim may have over-estimated t' impact o' t' cold, matey, dense air. T' cold did cause a lot o' issues with t' starters though - it took me rocket 3 tries t' light t' J540R motor. Apogee and main deployed nominally. T' rocket landed about 400' down-range just 20' off t' path and an easy recovery.
