First Flight of this square version of a classic rocket.  Kind of a cool look actually, I have several other "square" clones from NewWay that I'm excited to build.  Great boost, straight and fast off the rod.  Arcing over at the top of the climb, still nose up and climbing slightly at ejection.  Flown with a large (4"x40") Mylar streamer to cut down the drift.  Rocket came down pretty fast and of course found the gravel road.  Picked up some dings and rash on the fins, but otherwise in good shape.
