Finally, a working parachute! Tests and flights of two Coyote Rockets. One with my ejection system and the other with a new mechanical apogee detector my friend Alberto Gassol developed. Both rockets worked perfectly and were recovered. There were minor problems with the o-ring around the chute lines and a loose eye-bolt but otherwise it was a great day!
