Hopefully not driving too many people crazy here with how many questions I have, but was curious if anyone here has certified on an Aerotech G-force, and if the stock shock cord setup is good enough.
Primary concern would be the ejection charge being too strong and burning the elastic shock cord up. Although this has never been an issue on any of my other Aerotech models with the cooling mesh, I’ve never launched with an H motor either.
Here’s the setup:
- Elastic shock cord
- Aerotech’s cooling mesh
- parachute mounted on shock cord 1 foot down from nose cone
I plan on using a Cesaroni H90, cutting the delay down to 7 seconds. My understanding here is that the 29mm cesaroni has a 1.3g charge.
I know in the long run that a nomex blanket + nylon cord will be better, but for my cert I want to keep it as simple and stock as possible.
Has anyone here certified on the G-force? Any words of advice?
Edited with rocksim file for those who need it in the future.
