So finally (finally) getting around to attempting my L1 in October with a PML 1/4 Patriot. Overbuilt to the max as set it up for dual deploy when I feel the need to.
Here are the options I've narrowed the attempt down to. I've got a Pro 38 3G case. SOrry couldn't post screenshot, don't have internet in new house yet so had to take a photo and bring it to work.
My thoughts: H125 looks low and slow and safe. But I'm thinking too slow? Especially if a windy day. On the other side of the spectrum, I170 is a lot higher but what if my rocket falls apart at that speed (but no I'm just worried, I don't think it really will fall apart, I just want the safest L1 option).
Also, my ground hit velocity - is it too high? Might need to upgrade chute
Thanks!
