parachute does not open

I have a Phantom Blue rocket which I tried to launch yesterday with an A8-3 ENGINE. It went up well to @ 200' but parachute did not open and it just fell to the ground. I followed Estes' instructions on folding the parachute, no luck. Are there any videos or hints of how to fold and pack the parachute ino the rocket?

Just a heads up, this is a beginners section for RC aircraft. Hopefully you get an answer for a rocket but we aren't a rocketry forum in general.

It looks like Charlie P has ya covered, but your best bet for future rocket questions is to post them at this RCU subforum ;
