USC Rocket Launch

Here is the video that I took this past weekend of USC's rocket. I placed the camera about six feet away from the launcher pointing towards the sky. It was two stages and got a bit squirrely at booster burn out. The booster was a P-class motor expected to deliver an average thrust of 1300 lb and the sustainer was an L-class motor. I didn't hear about the recovery. You can find out more about the USC rocket propulsion lab by clicking here.
