Bolt Missile-Sixth Launch

Bolt 3.csv Description
Motor CATO. Lift off seemed slower than expected, followed by a sputtering sound and the rocket started to cartwheel. Both ejection charges went off and it landed safely. Flame cut through the aluminum tail cone retainer and into the void between fins. The booster took all the damage and is roasted pretty good.

Hope Bernie will take care of the casing and the motor !
He will. I talked to him before I left Sat and I'm going to bring the case to him next month. I needed to cut it out of the booster.
Sorry that happened to you. Is booster repairable?
I salvaged the fins and plan to build a different style of booster. I already have a 4" upscale of this same rocket so I want something a little different when I rebuild.
All your rockets look great, love the decals, at some point I have to repaint and fix all my rockets...
