This was one of our first rockets, it was Meesha's unfortunately we suffered a recovery system separation at apogee.
One of the biggest problems with Estes kits is the elastic shock cord provided, after a few flights it starts to become brittle and eventually breaks.
This one broke just above the body tube, the body tube then tumbled down and we recovered that, but the nosecone floated away forever on the para chute and we were unable to find it.
