Successfully flew and recovered my MDRM at the NARAM 57 sport range today! Beautiful flight on a CTI H175 Smokey Sam. Deployed right after it arced over on a 7 second delay. Wind made for a bit of a walk, but the bird was found laid out nicely with its laundry with nary a ding.
Special thanks to Tim Van Milligan, Mr. Apogee himself, for signing off on the flight, as well as helping pick a delay (even though I was using OpenRocket ) and lending a 3rd hand with the 'chute in the breezy prep tent. Thanks as well to everyone at SARA and NAR for putting on a great event, Mike of BAR for setting me up with the cert motor and case, Teddy at Onebadhawk for the fantastic 3-loop Kevlar harness, and Sirius Rocketry and Railbuttons.com for various sundries. And of course to several of you here for providing advice and inspiration.
