I'm looking at building an upscale of the old Estes Delta Wedge. While I'm not concerned about stability calculations, I'd really like to get a good sense of performance for motor selection. Biggest concerns are speed off the rail, and a reasonable altitude prediction.

Does anyone have any guidance or can point me in the direction of info online regarding high-drag wedge or conic design considerations for Open Rocket?
