How about the MEW Crystal Ball GPS system?
It's designed for rocketry, Tripoli approved for records, and needs no Amateur Radio license. No cell phone coverage, no APRS network, just the rocket, your smartphone and a small ground radio.
It also answers Troj's problem with not having enough hands - you view the map on your smatphone/tablet/whatever over Bluetooth, while the radio sits on the dash of your chase vehicle (or your back pocket).
I've seen it in action. Very solid, no dropouts, it just works.
All the best, James
