Note:trace is from my phone tracker. The low points weren't THAT low.


79m AGL and you got away??? Twice! Impressive!


No, Matt. Notice that launch is from below ground from the trace (phone tracker). As it was happening, it looked to me like lowest spot was around 1200 feet AGL. Still, that is low enough.


Yea, about 1200 AGL twice. You're right, plenty low. Updated the file so it shows properly:
