High Power Rocket Onboard Camera Video

This is another video from back in the days when I was into high power rocketry. This video was taken from an 8mm camcorder mounted inside a 7.5 inch diameter rocket weighing 65 pounds. On this flight, the rocket was powered by an Aerotech M2400 motor and reached an altitude of 7,163 feet as recorded by the onboard computer.

at 2:21 what is that red thing?

[JetPropellerLabs]

@The18Game That's the pilot parachute for the rocket's main parachute. That red parachute is 45 inches in diameter and pulls a 15 foot white parachute out of the deployment bag. The nose cone section with the camera inside has its own 8 foot parachute.

@JetPropellerLabs Going to be easy to get one since I go to Aviation h.s. I really want to launch one this summer over 20,000 feet. Would you be able to respond if I have questions later on? Me and my friends are going to do a very similar project over the summer and we need all the help and info. we can get. I'll add you if you don't mind?
