Hey Patrons! During pre-flight checks today I noticed some rough readings coming from the GPS radio on AVA - it looks like I need to move where the antenna is placed on the rocket, but that should probably do the trick. In order to make sure I have the best chance at a good flight on the first try, I'm pushing things back just 1 day to make this change, then I'll retest everything. 

Tomorrow the wind is a little bit higher, but based on previous experience we should be able to find a pocket of dead air to fly in. Thanks to those solid launch clamps, the wind doesn't matter until we're in the air - the whole flight is about 10 seconds so we just need a tiny window of calm air.

Apologies for the delay, and thankfully this shouldn't interfere with the SpaceX/NASA Crew 1 launch, later tomorrow night. Still planning on liftoff around 4:45pm. See you then!
