Interceptor CATO :(
2015-03-14 16:34:00ZDescription
Lots of work went into building this gem. Motor CATOed before even leaving launch rod. Most energy sent rocket propellant through top of airframe, although the bottom nozzle was blown out. Minor damage overall: 3/4 inch hole at front of motor mount - any more pressure and rocket would have at min. had a side hole out outer airframe. One of the antennas (spears) broke off. Lost the aft tailcone surrounding the motor.
