Arced to the left off the pad. Ejection charge sounded like a fly fart and the rocket tipped over and headed in ballistic. We were close enough to hear the splat when it hit the asphalt. Nose cone was driven back to the engine mount and the whole body was split down to the fins.

Actual Altitude: 349 Feet
