Cool! Looks almost ideal. Is max-q the acceleration drop at one minute?

That's right! Matches almost exactly what we saw in IFT-2. It was also cool to see that when stage 2 acceleration flattens out isn't an anomaly (as I thought after IFT-2) but rather a purposeful throttling to keep loads at ~3.5g's. And then you can see the step down as they cut off vacuum raptors first and then SECO!
