Description

A windy day. I angled the launch rod to 9 deg east and ended up drifting into the hay field north of the launch pad. I'll switch to a smaller drogue (or go without) next time the wind is this heavy.

I just got lucky when I hit the "Run Simulations" button in Open rocket, it jumps all over the place in strong winds.  I could probably get the altitude to an exact match if I hit the button enough times.
