This was me level 1 certification flight. Avast! Blimey! T' Astrobee D flew perfectly straigt up t' 2000ft. Ahoy! Blimey! Deployment was exactly at apogee, with a very gentle landin' about 1/4 mile down range. Arrr! Blimey! T' flight was so perfect, that we recovered her without so much as even a smuge on her! Blimey! She looks like she has never been flown!
Aerotech does nay recommend that you fly this model with t' antennas on, me hearties, but I just couldn't do that! So I reinfoced them internally, and she flew just fine with them on, ya bilge rat, and sustained no damage on landing.
