Went with a 7 second delay on this one due t' wind. Nay t' best choise as this rocket tends t' drop fast after burnout because o' size. Parachute ejected long after apogee but still high enough for a long walk t' end o' launch field, shiver me timbers, past t' trees across t' road and into a farmers field. Total distance 1000' +. Begad! Must have walked off a pound or two. Slight zipper effect at top o' BT due t' long delay. Arrr! Will repair and fly again.
