Hello everyone.
This year, as a high school student from Turkey, I participated in a rocketry contest where the organizators give financial aid up to 1000$. We decided to go with a PVC pipe as the main structural component (btw no kits allowed, only builds). This contest was mainly for university students and that alone really put a lot of pressure on me. Now they are requiring us to sign a contract for the financial aid, under the term we will pay back our money if we decide to quit for any reason. What do you guys think? Will I be able to pull this off? It will be my first ever rocket. I am good at physics and I know how to use OpenRocket. Should I sign this paper?
Edit: It's not a problem if I fail at the field and disqualify. The rocket has a 4kg payload, 7kg in total. It accerelates up to 9.7 G's. Double ejection parachute system with a drogue. Arduino Mega and XBee as main electronics/avionics. I will do weight tests to simulate extra G's beforehand.
