I'll start a new thread to avoid confusion.
I am putting this sort of rocket together. The equal marks are tubes, angles are fins.
Side pod boosters will act as tube fins when not in use. To adjust the nose weight the body tube will be sectioned such that the top most body tube forms part of the nose cone. In which removable Play-doh can be installed for extra weight.

My questions:
Is there a lot of planning needed to determine the size/delays of the side motors? All three motors be the same size? Or can I use lower power engines for the side and a more powerful longer lasting one in the middle? I plan on all 3 to be 18mm cases.
