Hello all, have not posted in a while. Still read regularly.
Im working a LPR rocket that cannot blow the nose cone for parachute recovery.
I am looking for ideas for alternate parachute ejection.
I also cannot do the conventional rear "pod" ejection.
As of now I am designing a side ejection which seems a little cumbersome.
Rocket diameter is about 5 inches.
Side ejection gives me about 2 inches to pack a 30"chute, shock cord and leader which comes out the middle of the nose cone.
If someone could direct me in the right direction-
Much appreciated!!!!
