    Hard landing - possible Chute Release issue - top of booster hit ground first - how?

    I used the word "may" with my explainaition why the heaviest part may bnot touch the ground first. I don't get the part where the op said de chute deploy at Apoogee, he probably means ejection, but how come someone see the apooge ejection at 1600 feet and don't see the rocket fall ? A free fall...

    Hard landing - possible Chute Release issue - top of booster hit ground first - how?

    A pressure port is usually in the altimeter bay and the CR goes in the booster section. For good practice you drill a vent hole in the booster section. The CR doesn’t depend on it, goods think because the pressure of the ejection charge will trigger false reading. This also happen when...

    Cable Cutter Success?
