Stratologger

Description

Great flight and take off, HOWEVER !! The main came out at Apogee and the charges did not fire !!!!! Battery went very low but nothing fired !!! Have to check that stratologger very troughly !!!! Also had a major blow out on the top of the lower frame ??? Also TAGG closure was blown off halfway Possibly cracked and hit the bottom of the Av Bay, The lid was slightly misplaced but no damage there! A bit of a concern what happened there also, To strong motor charge ??? Did not look like a zipper but actually more like to much pressure that did the damage there, see pictures. Lots of picturs by Eric and me and a great video by Jason. Thanks for these guys of being there !! Landing was a bit far off because the main parachute blow out at Apogee! Very nice decent and landing like 1/2 mile away from the pad, Hot very hot day, and a bit of a swampy walk in the hot water, Landing was also in a small creek, rocket had some water, but I guess no water damage, will inspect all later and will rebuild it properly, like this rocket and how it flies, no 808 key-chain camera recording? dam again.. Have to practise pushing that buttom right !!! Recovery with Jason also small recovery video and pictures. Thanks again for being there guys, Hot hot day !!! But fun fun? - VIOLENT DEPLOYMENT - ... Note:Charges: 1.6 main - 1.8 drogue. - Chutes: main 48" drogue 24"
