When I received the rocket, the electronic compartment looked in excellent shape, only some paint was missing. The audio beacon had gone silent, but after fiddling with the switch, some minute sound was coming out of it again. The flight computers were in proper shape, and nothing had come off. Only, which was odd, the switch to activate the 433 MHz. transmitter was in the off position! Probably this had something to do with the shock load on impact. It's odd because I thought I heard the transmitter for two minutes. This is another reason why we should audio-tape the whole event in the future.
