Third launch. since the previous flight went well and the winds were calm I decided to fly her on an E9. Nice staight boost. Ejection only popped the nose cone. Blanket and chute never came out. Needless to say it came down fast. Took a core sample about 3" deep. Luckily the ground was vey soft and the tube survived!
