Tall rocket based on an early NASA Scout design. Three tube sizes with two adapters - one balsa, one card stock. I had trouble getting the card stock transition right. The only markings is a checker roll pattern near the bottom.

Launch was slower, like a Big Bertha. Altitude was around 275' with a full 16" nylon parachute recovery.
Why do all conical nose cones seem to dig into the ground when they touch down? There was a little damage to the nose cone tip and some dirt scratches.
