Over drilled the delay grain by about 2 seconds.  Was trying to set the delay at 7 seconds and the delay drilling tool from CTI jump a notch and I went too deep.  That is quite evident in the A2EJ reading of -1.6 by the altimeter.  The CTI motor jumped off the pad in an instant and the rocket was gone in a flash.  Recovery was up wind of the pad about 90 feet away.
