My first attempt for me level 1 certification. Very quick boost but unfortunately rod whip sent t' rocket flyin' way off t' t' side. Begad! T' charge ejected t' nose cone, chute and piston but t' chute never inflated. Higher winds brought t' rocket in fairly hot and one o' t' fins broke on landing....unsuccesful attempt
