I found this video from the perspective of a landing pin interesting, especially when played back at low speed: https://youtu.be/ExV6PHRM8eI?t=17 https://youtu.

I found this video from the perspective of a landing pin interesting, especially when played back at low speed: https://youtu.be/ExV6PHRM8eI?t=17 https://youtu.be/ExV6PHRM8eI?t=17 You can see the arm comes in, then there's some side-to-side bounce (not sure how much is the rocket bouncing off vs. the arm fine-tuning its position). Just after contact seems to be made, and before the shock absorbing (or yaw-correcting) pistons drop much, there's a large flash from the engine. Is that a characteristic of engine shutoff, or was there a last-second "hover" push just before shutoff and drop? I wonder how much force the arms felt. Another perspective showing both arms, and (as mentioned in the article) how the left one adjusted more significantly at first: https://youtu.be/JlcrNakUGVs?t=3 https://youtu.be/JlcrNakUGVs?t=3
