I'm in Denmark. I need to launch a rocket weighing 1 kg (approx.) to an altitude of 100 m. Because of import regulations, the most powerful motors I can buy are C motors. The rocket needs to be quite reliable, because the payloads (cansats) aren't mine, and they need to be recovered in fair condition. It must be launched up to eight times in one day, once a year.
What would you do?
I've 3D printed a motor mount for 7 C motors, but I can't shake the feeling that this path opens up rich possibilities for things to go awry. On the other hand, I don't know what else to do. I know this forum discourages people from producing motors themselves, and I'm not sure I would be able to deploy a parachute with the same reliability that commercially available motors provide.
Any good ideas? Cause I don't have many left.
Best regards,
Steen
