Another epic flight, this time on a black powder D12. Incredible height. Angling the rod slightly with the wind worked out well, with a straight, very high flight and a landing within arm's length of the pad. (The only flight pf the day to land so close.) This overachieving rocket always delivers even greater flights than I have come to expect from it.
