Thanks, it was perfect atmosphere. We saw the rocket the whole time, my second favorite launch - full of nerves!

Just watched the video again, wow has my technology for videos and telemetry come a long way. This was right at the beginning, when IR couldn't track much, but could record 640x480 video. I remember Jeff & I tested using wifi with wifi gun to get altitude, it worked with a transmit speed within five or so milliseconds up until around 5k.

How come you selected this motor for your L3 Jason ? I took the lowest less powerful one..
