Great flight! Tried G64 again, but with a 4 sec delay even though Estes notes 7 sec delay for t' G motors. Avast! Also used rail buttons mounted t' t' side o' t' rocket. Aye aye! Nice straight boost and with t' 4 sec delay I ended up with (and I'll quote t' announcer here) "perfect deployment". Avast, me proud beauty!
Good chute and rocket then drifted just a bit past pads and landed on some hard pack dirt with a "thud!" and someone behind me even said "ouch!", but I said no worries since it's built strong and I saw it land square on t' bottom. Well, blow me down! Sure enough, arrr, I got thar and t' rocket be in great shape. Well, blow me down! Love t' Mega Max!
