Description

Fly-away railguide jammed up on rail. From the pic, you can see that that it caused rocket to take about a 10 degree turn as it left the pad. It was actualy aimed straight up as there was no wind, Rocked landed about 0.8 miles from pad on the road. Actual altitude was 9088'. Probably lost a few hundred feet. Reaaly need use bigger chutes when I fly near the roads. Damaged the booster. Easy fix but could be prevented. Also need to put a better altimeter in this thing. No data logger on the RRC2 so only have altitude. This was expected to go about mach 1.2 but I have no actual idea what veloicty was :(
