This be t' Mark II version o' t' rocket. Aye aye! Cold day, in t' teens temperature wise, me hearties, and 13mps winds. Ahoy! Sunny but cold. Kept t' AV Bay warm with a hand warmer until it be time t' launch. T' rocket coned significantly off t' rail and I originally thought it had struck t' rail and destabilized for t' first bit o' t' flight. However, upon recovery I noticed a notch in t' nozzle o' t' K535 single-use motor which could account for t' conin' and veerin' off in one direction.
Recovery be 3,500' down-range just a few feet inside a field. Long, 2,500' walk from t' road in t' snow and briar patches.
