Note #1: This flight profile assumes an 18' launch rail. Actual launch rail is 60' with a useable/effective length of 50'.
Note #2: Due to the uncertainty of availability, REDLINE propellant is not scheduled for use at LDRS. Note #3: The rocket can withstand up to a booster engine failure and still achieve an acceptable flight profile.
