NRC 1/2A SD flight #1.  Managed to pack/roll a 5"x50" tracing paper streamer into a 13mm rocket.  Nice high boost out of the tower, good streamer deploy at apogee, winds starting to gust a bit, but still no real consistent thermal activity.  Still got 54 seconds duration which was better than my first PD flight.  Short recovery, no damage.
