Flown as a single stage rocket. Saw the puff of smoke as the delay charge fired, but did not see the streamer deploy. MIA. Will do the math and make a GPS projection tomorrow, to see if it can be recovered. UPDATE: Rocket was within 50 meters of projected location! Its bright colors once again caught my eye. Two fins were broken off, nose cone missing, shock cord present but snapped. I suspect the rocket slammed into the roof of a nearby building, and bounced down to its final resting place. RIP.
