This was me first time usin' t' Alt3 and a Chute Release that I just received for Christmas.
T' F40 was slow off o' t' pad but was very loud and boosted with a lot o' authority. Max velocity was 183 mph.
T' CR was set for 400 feet and performed flawlessly. Alt3 data detected an increase in decent at 399 feet as it fell away from t' unfurlin' chute and attained its final decent rate at 370 feet. Arrr! If this proves t' be consistent over t' next few flights I'll attempt settin' it for 100 feet.
T' BRB900 was nay aboard this flight.
