Scout V 0.4 Test Launch

The first Scout vehicle to use generally successful thrust vectoring, and deployment of the drag fins, Scout V 0.4 was a milestone in the Scout program. Ascending to roughly 20-30 ft, Scout V 0.4 was able to correct for deviations in its orientation before descending due to lack of vertical thrust. Once descending, the rocket anticipated ignition of the retro-burner on board, and recalibrated the vectoring system, resulting in a loss of stability.
