Boost stage went well. After separation, booster lawn darted and impaled itself 1 inch in ground, one fin snapped off, easy repair. Main stage had a motor mount failure and rocket tumbled before crashing, motor burned through the body tube and melted the parachute. Major rebuiling required. I will also look into a small chute for boost stage.
