Looking good! You're setting up for 13-13mm? A Centuri B4-mini would be great for the upper. Sadly, I only have B4-3s left. Too short for a sustainer.

I got my U-T up on a second flight: G115-F10.

Given how much it turned during that -long- F10 burn, I'm surprised it didn't zipper.
On the other hand, it blew out a panel between the Tomahawk fins. I think I made a tactical error using a Ventris slotted body tube for the Tomahawk. The slots sit under the fins and for staging, the centering ring is more than half way up the slots. It makes a weak point. I should have filled and covered the unused portion of the slots first.
