    What Lipo do you use

    I've had good luck with Turnigy and Pulse. Tunigy for the larger batteries (800mAH+) and Pulse for the smaller (300 mAH) 2S, Proton/Quantum/T3 GPS. for 1S I like the wolfwhoop 280mAH sticks. They are 4.5 grams. work really well with quarks.

    Wildman Mach2 HED Recovery Gear?

    I have a 36" Bama in mine (same rocket) it was one of those orange/white Apollo chutes. Fits easily. And agree with the comments above, very little powder is needed. Descent rate is 22-23 FPS depending on motor, a little fast, but we fly on playa or soft grass.

    Anyone else miss the 24mm F21 or 29mm G35 Econojets?

    I would love a nice longer-burn 29mm and 24mm option. G25 is my go-to now, but would love an analog for 24mm. "Full" E15 or "Full" F20-25.

    Boat tail aesthetics.

    They not only look good, but improve altitude. I was 250' higher on a ~3000' flight with a boattail vs. without. They can shift Cp though, so make sure to run sims!
