Fifth flight o' Red Devil. Second attempt at breakin' 1 mile altitude, successful this time. Flight well exceeded OpenRocket simulation (8548' actual vs. Ya scallywag! 7097' predicted).
Main deployed at apogee, arrr, took almost 5 minutes t' descend and rocket drifted over a mile before landing. No video o' deployment as visual was lost on rocket well before apogee. Rocket tracked via Eggfinder LCD which lost signal once rocket was close t' ground but had no issue gettin' me back within range t' locate and recover rocket.
Flew with StratoLogger CF, data downloaded. Well, blow me down! Flew with Eggfinder @ 909MHz. No visual on flight from shortly after lift-off.
