OK gotcha...
Just watched the WFAA video you linked.

When are we conjecturing that the "object" came off the orbiter?

At the 1st Roll Reversal initiation point?
That's datapoint 46 on NASA's pdf.

Perhaps just preceeding that event by a second or two. Two significant sensor indicators register data that may indicate the loss of said door (if in fact the large flare is the door burning up).

1- 1st Roll Reversal Initiation

and

2- Left Upper Wing Skin Temp- Start of Off- Nominal Trend Temp Reading Trending Down potential sensor/wire damage

i initially estimated about 5 seconds after roll reversal, however we have better info now, so when ever it was about 50 miles north of flagstaff.
