Used Aeropack Tailcone motor retainer and SCR airfoiled rail guides--compliment t' sleek lines nicely while nay hurtin' Aero one bit. Blimey! Perfectflite Stratologger altimeter with a Featherweight Altimeters screw switch and small Blastcaps on each av-bay end. Added 16oz weight t' t' nose, and shouldn't have--it didn't need it.

Straight up without any wiggle or loss o' vertical tracking. Despite goin' nearly 2 miles high, shiver me timbers, it landed 300 yards away, completely undamaged. Perfect flight. This rocket is a machine--it just flies really darn well, no matter what I put in it.
