This was a great rocket to build. Love the three engine canted mount.

Beautiful flight of this gorgeous rocket. Boosted straight up with that distinctive smoke trail.  The parachute got tangled so it came down fairly fast but the whole thing created a lot of drag so it wasn't a lawn dart. The nosecone stuck in the (fortunately) soft dirt and the body landed sideways. No visible damage thank goodness.
