It was launched near Davenport, Iowa closest to the town of Walcott.
It wasn't too windy. Using dual deployment allows the rocket to descend quickly without too much wind drift and then the main parachute deploys at a low altitude. It landed less than 1/4 mile from the launch pad.

Where was this launched? Boy, that's windy for a rocket as high as 5,950 feet! Must have drifted far!
