Level 1 flight, first rocket build or launch for me in 35+ years. Wind caused some weathercocking, more than I expected(I didnt know what to expect really) and delay was a little longer than we had 'planned' for. Chute failed to unroll(my fault) but the rocket survived the fall unscathed and Level 1 was attained. Sturdy kit. I will do better next time...
