Beautiful day and great flight.  The K780R came up to pressure a bit slow and the 5" Goblin weather cocked into the wind off the pad.  This made recovery quite difficult as the rocket landed in about the most inaccessible part of the park.  Still a lot of fun to see the 85% K redline motor off the pad.
