I got 4 Mega mosquitos from the estes sale, mostly to try different modifications. The first one will be a booster to add to any normal mega mosquito:
I'm a bit worried about velocity off the launch rod, RS is saying 41 ft/s. I'm also not sure If this will be allowed to fly off the HP pads which is key to reaching safe velocity. I'm also not sure if it will stage properly and if the booster will tumble. I borrowed Daddyisabar's HopeSim and it says it will work though. Anyone have ideas on how I might be able to add a chute to this that would unfold at staging?
The other project may be even more likely to have motor ignition problems:
