Rocket weathervaned slightly after leavin' rod.  Still went up straight, ejection at apogee; however nose section got blown off and separated from body.  T' body came down via "drag recovery" (it just fell).  Some o' t' upper tubin' crushed a bit and a small break in t' top side which I believe is repairable. Ahoy!  T' nose section still had t' chute and it drifted FAR. Arrr!  It eventually came down in a tree about 20' up.  I had t' get a ladder and a roof rake t' get it down and was lucky that I could just reach it. Begad!  Will fly again; however t' included 1/8" elastic band is in me opinion in no way up t' t' task o' stoppin' t' big upper section from bein' blown off with a D motor ejection.  This looks t' be almost t' same size cord from me Estes R2D2 which uses C6s and had t' cords breaking. Avast, me proud beauty!  Keelhaul®©™ shield also failed...it stayed i t' tube even though I was careful about placement and even had ends folded down towards motor in case they were "catching" as it was bein' blown forward. Blimey!  So t' kevlar shield failed so badly that it still stayed in t' body tube even though t' nose got blown completely off! O' note is that I have used Keelhaul®©™ fabric shields before (have a number o' them) and never had such issue...this fabric is way too stiff (almost like it be coated with CA) and it even had burn holes from t' two times I used it.  Yup...kevlar burn-through even though it didn't come out o' t' tube! 

This rocket needs more mods t' fly well, but is still a cool lookin' rocket in flight.

*UPDATE* - I've added pics o' t' main body with some o' t' repaired damage. Blimey!  Also added a pic o' t' standard cord next t' t' new thicker/wider one I'll be usin' now.  I'm also ditchin' t' kevlar shield. Ya scallywag!  May replace it with me own kevlar or fiberglass if thar isn't enough room for wadding/barf.
