First test flight of the ROBOT design.
I was concerned about stability, but it was fine with a B6-4 motor. Rear eject worked, but - The winds took it into the trees!
I chalked it up as a loss, there were a few others rockets caught in the high pines to the West side of the field.
To my surprise - John and Tom got it down with the extension pole! No damage, ready for more tests. I may add some nose weight before using a heavier C6-5 motor.
