Comments
Just about at burnout the rocket popped the nose cone off (but not the chute out) and kicked the motor out the back end. The motor and retainer were found on the range without any forward closure. The forward closure was found in the recovery insulation. The ejection charge was still present, the delay grain was unburnt. The forward motor block was also found in the wadding. I have photos taken right afterward, but the form won’t let me select an image from library, only take a new one. I put the three pictures online here https://cabbey.smugmug.com/Fun/Rockets/n-DqH9gK/Qjet-cato
