This was a great launch but a shit landing. It was aimed straight up on the pad. Even with the light wind it still weather cocked. I put a bigger chute on in hopes of more drift but nothing doing! It landed in the swamp on the west side of the field. Had to use boat to retrive it. All electronics are shit! Lipo batteries are shit! Parachute was only thing on water surface - everything else submerged! This rocket is offically retired - I am over V2's no matter how much I love it. This was 4th flight and same results. By the way - same rocket that landed on Miss Piggey's house.
