Congrats to you, too! Did Peter get video?

Not sure if he did or not. I shot a video one from the LCO table but didnt zoom in much. After 3/4 (I lost count) launch attempts before we swapped out the batteries at the away cell/tower, I couldn't feel my fingers anymore! Wish I had more pics but it is what it is. I'm just glad I got the flight in!

Yeah, I used to spend $100 on a day at the field, now I can spend $100 per rocket on a day at the field!

Appreaciete it people; a lot of masking-tape gave their lives for this paintjob.
Nice use of the bell-shaped motor retainer.

About 10 hours in the paint from first prep for primer to laying down the Max2K clear.

Congrabulations!

Congrats sir - nicely done rocket. Used to fly at Bayboro in the late 2000's. Nice bunch of people. Hope to do my L2 this year at some point.
