Second flight of the Shark. Nice boost, smooth and straight. Didn't see much of the show from the Metalstorm motor since I headed down range for the recovery, but the folks on the line said it was cool. Rocket arced into the wind at the top of the climb. Good drogue deployment at apogee, good main deployment at 500'. I was able to jump on the main as soon as the rocket landed and prevent any dragging. I have corrected the flight condition settings for my RockSim file and the actual performance is now very close
