I’m just wondering if my scratch build could handle an 54mm L motor?? I’m gonna be attempting my L-2 cert. @ LDRS 40. Probably gonna go w/K-550W but I haven’t ruled out slapping an L motor for the attempt. The 1st 4 ft of the rocket is super heavy duty cardboard tube 5 3/8 ID I found somewhere a decade ago & saved it thinking someday I’ll make a rocket out of that. The 2 upper sections are regular 5 3/8 ID BT I ordered from PML both 24 inches long. The CP from my calculations is 32inches from the bottom of the rocket.
( 1st 48 inches is heavy duty cardboard )
Aside from everyone quacking I should use a smaller impulse motor for my flight. Can I get some knowledgeable info on this?? Can cardboard alone handle a L motor??
