I started with the Dr Zooch Saturn V, with newly increased nose weight and a lighter (B6-4) motor. It flew straight and steady with no serious problems — the homemade Mylar chute didn’t fully deploy, and, due in part to the nose weight, I suppose, the Apollo end came in point first, but aside from dirt the escape tower was undamaged. This one’s officially unretired now.
