First flight for my shiny, new old-school Wizard, courtesy of decals from Excelsior Rocketry. Everything looked good - normal ejection and descent, landed in soft grass.  Unfortunately, one of the fins broke in half and was recovered near the rocket.  It certainly looks fixable, but Wizard isn't shiny and new anymore.
