Some flights did not end well.

The glider really stuck the landing (lots of this at the launch)

Boost glider, just after motor ejection. (engine visible)

Boost glider, just after motor ejection.
Some actual gliding, despite the wing damage.
A good glider image means a bad flight.
Entering free flight (note the ejection charge cloud is still glowing)

Just before deployment
Not a good deployment. I think this is the one that unraveled.
iai2006launchegglofterdeployfailureuniversityillinoisaerospaceinstitutemodelrocket
Same rocket. The booster looks unraveled, but what's the flame and smoke trail still heading up after the ejection smoke?
Same rocket, whatever it is is still going
Deployed, but tangled parachute.

A payload, all alone in the sky

Successful deployment. You can see the streamer on the booster is out and the payload is out with an open parachute.
