I used to fly the Cineroc from my front yard - I lived on the very east end of town (our back windows literally looked out on the prairie - we could see the local airport ~6 miles away) so with the wind out of the west (which was the norm) I could easily recover out in the prairie. Views of the neighborhood were far more interesting than when I launched it in the prairie...
I flew 3 F100 motors (two lofting a Cineroc), and one failed to fire the ejection charge (dust bin recovery of the Cineroc when it impacted on asphalt ). Granted, 3 motors is not a good statistical sample, but it was enough to convince me not to bother with that motor.
In contrast, I flew my two stage/two D cluster Cineroc carrier over a dozen times with just one unsuccessful recovery when one engine failed to ignite. It went up about 50 ft. and did a loop, then staged when it was roughly parallel to the ground, headed west . It flew over one house, then crashed into the next house. It took out a few potted plants but there was no damage to the brick house. Cineroc and booster were pretty much destroyed, but the film cartridge was intact - the video was ASSUME !
