@RichiH haha das war witzig. Habe deinen Post gesehen, schnell reingeklickt, war zufällig bei T-16 sec.

Hab das Ding starten sehen, auf einmal hat es sich Richtung Boden gedreht und es hat geknallt. Nach 40 Sekunden war alles vorbei, man hat sich vom Stream verabschiedet und naja... . Weiter in der Fediverse Timeline. 🤣

Liftoff,
Cleared the tower,
but then:

Pitch-over-maneuver seemed to be too hefty, started the vehicle to oscillate due to oversteering,
flame-out or motor shut down.
Crash only audibly.

In review the oversteering already was visible (in the thrust flame direction) during the initial ascent.

Too bad. But "only" a parameter (thrust correction/angle factor) to change/reduce.

Looking forward to the next launch.
