Great liftoff and flight. It appeared that the nosecone did not come off at deployment and came in ballistic.
I recovered the rocket a month later and it turned out that the nose cone did deploy but the parachute got stuck. The core sample that was retrieved from the tube revealed the chute was intact and that dinosaurs did, in fact, exist!
