First Launch of Full Scale Hellfire at MDRA

First launch o' me full scale Hellfire rocket at MDRA Higgs Farm. Begad! This be a 58 pound rocket - 50 lbs which was in t' nosecone for stability - it is a missile design afterall. This first launch was on an AMW L1080 Blue Baboon motor. Begad! There was an early ejection o' t' main chute durin' first launch. Blimey! I believe subsequent launches utilized stronger shear pins as that 50 lb nosecone has a lot o' forward momentum!
