And it did, with similar carnage that the Astronaut Farmer had. I had a really nice horizontal flight until impact right about the time of 2nd stage burnout. It was way downrange at that point.

My new Ceneroc Omega has been built with 1/4" lugs so I can use a longer rod. Hopefully any future vectored thrust will be somewhat offset by those big fins getting some fast moving air over them upon clearing the rod.
