First flight!  13mm motor in an 18mm rocket, ya bilge rat, so nay optimized, but t' Micropeak altimeter will nay fit in a smaller body tube.  Nice straight boost out o' t' tower, no piston.  Stallin' out, nose up at ejection.  Good streamer, recovered in t' grass, me bucko, no damage.  Corrected altitude 80m/262'
