That is a nice launch, big amateur rockets kick ass.
I'm pretty damn excited about Copenhagen Suborbitals launch tests planned for this summer, a 60km launch is planned.

@ darknessXsmash....121,000 feet is 22.916 miles. 121,000 feet divided by 5,280 feet (1 mile) = 22.916 miles. 42 miles is 221,760 feet.

Awesome. I love that sound especially a few seconds after launch when it's supersonic and you can feel and hear the Roaring sound it makes. It never gets old. Good job.

@emb11103 Nope. Space is approx 300,000 feet. Double the simmed and typical altitude for a large R rocket.

If/when you do this again, it might be worth looking into a small camera (search on ebay for sports camera, some pretty cheap) and a GPS tracker (again, might work out cheaper if you can find a phone to use). Shouldn't add too much weight, as long as it can get signal. Pretty impressive at any rate, what fuel did you use?

@SepradistPhantom We had both on board, the ATV failed on the launchpad, and the APRS failed to perform properly in flight. Last two beacons were 42,000' and 10,000 ft at 12 seconds apart. It came down at Mach 2.2 O_O!
See: v=amyIKgp0pvA for the Search and Rescue flight the next morning.
