View attachment 202 rocket.rktHello,
For a college engineering project, I am working on building a rocket to loft the digital flight recorder I have designed. I am designing the rocket using RockSim 9, and although I seem to have reasonable 1-1.5 caliber stability on both 1 and 2-stage configurations, the rocket, during simulation, is shown to be massively overstable, weathercocking like nothing I've designed before.
EDIT: .rkt file included. OOPS!
There must be something I am missing. How can I fix this?
As you can see this is my first post on this forum - I am not really sure if I should put this here or in the scratch-builts subforum, so if i'm not on the right track please let me know I welcome and appreciate any help you can give me!
