Didn't have time to prep any rockets the night before so I did everything at the field. Chilly morning with a little bit of a breeze, nice day to fly. Nice boost, smooth and straight off the rail, the CTI red motors don't do much for me visually. Drifting laterally with the winid during the coast. Arcing over at the top of the climb, good drogue deployment at apogee. Good main deployment at 500 feet, grass landing on the field, no damage.
