I was able to try out the 75mm fly-away rail guide from Mayhem Rocketry (via AMW Pro-X) this weekend. I put this on my Mongoose 75. It was too loose, so I superglued some pieces of the fat rubber bands inside and it gripped the rocket just fine. The first flight was on an Aerotech K560W.
The next day I used the rail guide on the Mongoose 75 again, this time with an Aerotech M1297W. The flight was great.
Unfortunately, the plastic on the rail guide broke. I can not see the part that broke when zooming in on the above picture, so I do not know if it broke from hitting the fin or from hitting the ground.
I really like these so far. Anyone know if you can get a replacement part?
