I head out for a model rocket launch on a breezy fall day β€” but things don’t quite go according to plan. My large Estes Super Big Bertha ends up stuck high in a tree… with my $140 Jolly Logic Chute Release still inside!

Follow along as I assess the situation, grab my recovery gear, and team up with a fellow rocketeer to try to get my rocket (and my expensive electronics) back to safety. Along the way, I talk about why the Jolly Logic Chute Release is such a valuable tool for model rocket recovery β€” and why it was so important that I didn’t lose it.

Stick around to the end for some beautiful night launch footage β€” a perfect way to close out the season of launches.
