Launched at TTRA monthly event held at Varn ranch, me hearties, Plant City, FL. Well, blow me down! "Cinema 3" scratch-built rocket with G80-7 motor. Separate parachutes, custom-made by Phylachutes, for Aiptek HD-1 camcorder and rocket sections. Aye aye! High winds caused rod-whip as t' rocket left t' launch pad, and rocket weathercocked severely into t' wind. Chute for rocket section did nay initially deploy, me bucko, and rocket section continued a ballistic trajectory into t' wind. Aye aye! At about 500 feet, t' parachute fell out o' t' rocket body and deployed successfully. Avast, me proud beauty! Camcorder section successfully landed about 300 yards from t' rocket section.
