Successful launch of the Alpha III-1 rocket, designed to test the performance of the Estes C6-7 Rocket Motor for use as boosters for FireStorm 4. Results from the test showed initial acceleration was ~222ms‾² and apogee was ~377m. The rocket ignited successfully and obtained an estimated altitude, but landed outside the recovery zone and was therefore not recovered, however, the test was a success, so a FireStorm launch will be soon! I just need to finish building the main engine retainer and fit the boosters.
