Hiya folks - like many I've read about here, I used to launch lots of rockets back "in the day" and now my kids are getting interested. I'm enjoying rediscovering how much fun this is. We're sticking with Estes kits currently, and I just finished building the STM-012. My question: Estes lists an E9 as the biggest engine that should be used. I've plugged the specs into OR, and if I use something with a bit more power-like an F24-7 from AeroTech-I should get an additional 150m of altitude. My concern is ripping the fins off the poor thing. What say you? Mods, if this needs moving please feel free.
