Insane Rocketry

Description

This was the shakedown flight for my L3 rocket. Conditions were perfect except Fredy wasn't there. It flew straight & true and landed about 500feet from the pad and reached an altitude of 7438' by the RRC3 & 7421' by the Quark. Drogue might be a little big so probably put a smaller drogue on for my cert flight.
