Rocket launched but soon made a U-turn towards the ground. Aim was 10km.

Possibly problem with flight control , also since it is sounding rocket strong cross winds can play spoil sport , though atmospheric conditions r factored in before launch.

Correction. Engine failure. Launched, then cut-out almost immediately.
