I've got a question. I've always been an low powered rocket guy, but am starting to do mid-power. I've used snap swivels to attach my parachutes to the shock cord (the safety kind without protruding tabs to catch on things), on every rocket up to a Super Big Bertha, and Executioner. But now that I am going beyond that, I am thinking the snap swivels I've previously used may be inadequate.
The next rocket is around 1.5 lbs give or take a couple ounces. I want the ability to switch between an 30" and 27" parachute fairly rapidly, without adding very much weight. What would you all suggest for say 1.5 lbs up to 3 - I don't plan to get level 1 certified so I can't see building rockets much beyond 2 lbs or so (though who knows?).
I have a decently supplied fishing store nearby but am not sure what I should be looking for.
Thanks for any help.
