Thanks. F44 --> E6 = Great motor combination. Congrats!

F44 --> E6 = Great motor combination. Congrats!

I Agree, The F44 gives a strong boost and when the E6 lights it seems to burn forever. It was still burning after it was out of sight. Super calm day and clear. Vertical flight. Not sure I can get any more out of it but next time I will use my new launch tower and remove the streamlined rail guides.

Congratulations! Yes, a tower or fly-away rail guides will help.

Cool, Try a lower average thrust motor for stage 1, you will get higher altitude...
