Used the Slimline 29/38 adaptor again, made sure to double check the retaining ring on the inner collar since I had lost my motor case last time I used it. Great boost, straight, fast and high. Lost track of it against the high clouds during the coast, heard the apogee event and had a good signal from the tracker. Never picked it up visually, someone picked it up and pointed it out just as the main charge went off. Landed on the field, long recovery walk, no damage.
