Flown on the following mission. Catch successful, timing within 0.1s.

Redundant inertial trigger added to the recovery software build.
- TStaylor.singhDiagnosedOct 9 · 01:31 AM
Barometric trigger fired late in the higher-humidity profile that day.
Resolution
Deployment timing was driven off the barometric trigger alone. Added a redundant inertial trigger and re-flew on the next mission — catch successful.
