%F Bouttier-Guittier give an explicit formula.

%F a(1) = 1, and a(n) = (6*(2*(-2 + n))!/((-2 + n)!*n!))*2F1(-5*n, 2 - n, 2*(2 - n); -1) for n >= 2, where 2F1(a, b, c; z) is the hypergeometric function. - _Franck Maminirina Ramaharo_, Jan 27 2019

%F a(n) ~ sqrt(152 - 62*sqrt(6)) * (248*sqrt(6)/9 - 52)^n / (3*sqrt(Pi) * n^(5/2)). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Jun 09 2019
