What a cool maiden flight. Rocket has lots of drag so makes for a neat smoke trail. To bad I haven't got the hang of this new camera as I missed it. Parachute deployment was spot on and rocket drifted back over and to the right of pad about 50 feet away. Perfect landing on the grass with no damage.
