In this restricted area I was sure I could get a good flight and did! Always an impressive rocket. Forgot to put the DAMN altimeter in it! Grrr... Only dicey think is I still used a 24 chute as the rocket is still heavy. At deployment the payload bay snapped back and took off a fin. Easy to repair.
