I recently ordered the Estes Designer Special Kit which is basically just a bunch of parts that allow you to design your own rocket. I've designed one on Open Rocket that I plan to build but wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions for things to improve or things to do when actually building. I also had a question about whether or not the ejection charge on a standard Estes engine would be enough to deploy the parachute on this rocket? I've heard of people adding more black powder to the ejection charge but was wondering if that would be necessary. I plan on launching with either a D12-5 or D12-7 depending on which I can find cheaper. If you need to know the exact parts I am using just ask below. Thanks everyone!
