I am building a rocket that should go to 1100ft on a cluster of 3 D12s. The loaded weight is 14.6oz. What size parachute should I use? The chute will be sewn out of ripstop and will have 6 lines. TIA
 
Thanks for that link. That's a pretty cool site and I had not seen it before.
 
Yes, it's a great site, and, the owner of the site is our very own EMRR here on the forum! If you end up getting RockSim for your computer (a fantastic rocket design and flight simulation program), Nick has the largest database of RockSim files out there.

Check out RockSim at:

then go back to Nick's site to download the rocket files to see how your favorites will fly!
