So its about that time in my rocket build that I am ready to buy some shock cord. Usually I use 1/2" nylon that I buy off of amazon or the rocketry warehouse. This time around though while searching through amazon I found some 3/16" shock cord that is almost like bungee rope. My question is, has anyone really used this kind of rope before, and if so how were the results? My line of thinking is that since this bungee rope stretches to 100% its original length (if you have 2 feet packed in at launch then when under stress it will stretch to 4 feet) you will be able to save some weight and a lot of shock cord. Here is the link for the type of rope I found.
