Well, heres a update on flight #2, the velocity lock was engaged ( because I feel that there need to be altitude lockouts lower than 300' the alt check was disabled). Staging did occur but rocket was horizontal away from flightline when it occurred, even with the timer set to one second less than previous flight on the same booster motor ( an F24W). The Quantum also did not fire the deployment charge at apogee and booster came in ballistic, possibly rebuildable, but I probably wont. Aluminum sled angles and all threads bent, one terminal block, the beeper and one other part were shorn off the board ( verticle 3 pronged thing between main drogue terminals). I will be contacting Cerving, for parts to see if I can fix it to recover data from flight. The JLCR's op rod was also bent but after straightening it worked fine, but I do need to contact John Beans for a replacement.
Will post photo this evening when I get home.
Sad to hear.
Is the Quantum alive enough to get the data from? So you can see what -it- thought was going on?
