Nice straight launch sent the rocket out of visual range. Heard the ejection charge detonate. Caught site of the descent but the wind at that altitude was stronger than at ground level and the rocket drifted a couple of hundred yards away into the trees. I hope to recover the fin and nosecone assembly one day.
