Flight of Mike Borman's Giant Leap Elipse with CPR recovery on an Aerotech J350W motor to 2,830 feet on October 10, 2010. The rocket used a Missile Works altimeter to deploy a drogue chute at apogee and the main chute at 600 feet. An onboard GPS for tracking and a Booster Vision Gearcam rode on the outside of the rocket to capture onboard video. Pictures by Mike Borman.
