Great Flight!.  Swapped out the delay element for a 9 second delay.  Nice boost, straight and fast off the rail.  Nose up still climbing a bit at ejection.  Good chute, minimal drift, lakebed landing about 70 feet from the pad, no damage.  I would probably fly this motor again with the standard medium (10 sec) delay.  Jolly Logic Altimeter One flown for altitude data.
