“at an odd angle immediately after ignition...”

Yeah, I noticed that also. It seemed like it tipped slightly to the right. Maybe that’s what it was supposed to do. I put it down to its prototype status. Sometimes things are done on the test beds that would never be done with a “production” launch. Booster shut down at a little over 100k’. Interesting separation. :-)

At least someone else noticed the rightward lean at ignition. I thought it was so pronounced that it had a chance of the tail section hitting the launch gantry. I guess they planned for such a low trajectory that maybe the roll-program had to start at liftoff.
