Straight up! This rocket had no trouble being completely straight until apogee which it deployed a very long streamer. Unfortunately the streamer did not keep the nose up and it came down hard on the tube end.  There was also a door alarm onboard which sounded off nicely after the deployment event.  The Astro Bear survived.  Duration was a mere 21.5 seconds.
