Madcow Tembo on AT170G. This could be my favorite motor so far. Sounds awesome and looks like the Tembo was clawing for altitude. 2249 feet.

Thanks to user DeepOvertone for the video (although it is sideways)
Unfortunately the chute release failed to release the chute and it hit pretty hard.
Fortunately the ground was freshly planted corn and fairly soft. So no damage.
Still not sure as to what happened with the Chute Release. I used the same folding and packing techniques I've used for many flights. My Little John had the same device fail earlier that day but he wasn't so lucky. Will need quite a bit of work to fly again.
Bear with me, still can't get the video embedded correctly, yes I clicked the film strip thingy.
