Hi!
Have any of you tried off-center nose weight to adjust or affect flight trajectory?
This was something I thought of trying after having flown winged rockets (ex. Dynastar Foxfire & Lexxjet, X-15) and noticing a tendency for the rocket to arc up towards the top of the nose cone cockpit bulge. I had figured that the extra bulge was causing more drag on that side.
