This one makes me a bit motion sick on the free fall back to Earth.

I launched my fiber-glassed Brighthawk rocket yesterday with on-board video camera and HCX flight computer. The two outboard H128 motors lit properly, but the central !200 igniter failed, as did the parachute deployment charge. So it comes back to earth in a fast roll (better than ballistic) and smashed into five pieces upon impact.
