Great boost, nearly straight up. Delay seemed long. Descent started out great with the JLCR set at 200 feet. Unfortunately, I must have accidentally shut it off or failed to turn it on. I made four attempts to wrap the chute in a manner that allowed the bundle to slide in and out of the BT. Each time I had to manually open the CR in order to refold the chute. Need to work on the 38mm packing at the pad. In contrast, the previous launch of the JLCR in WildChild1 was prepped at home prior to heading out to the home pad. Today's launch resulted in three cracked fin fillets.
