Its flyable!
Since there are so many options and ways of doing it for the recovery harness, I went with what makes sense at this point. Please feel free to critique what I've done so far. I'm inexperienced with rockets this size so hopefully I got it halfway decent...
Here is the entire recovery chain starting with a 36" rip-stop chute attached via swivel and quick link to 6' of 5/8" elastic connected to the eye bolt of the dummy av-bay and then about 2' more until it connects to about 10' of kevlar cord, which is then attached to the body tube. Attachment points are overhand loop knots and bowline knots.
With everything now it weighs 40.3oz? Wow thats 1144g.
And here it is next to my Ventris for comparison
