OK, as you may have seen my thread about my 29mm MD rocket. I have ordered all of the parts needed, except for the motor, which I will pick up at a local rocket club launch.
These are my two choices:
Aero-Tech H195NT DMS motor, $29.99. 1.14 second burn time, 236Ns (total impulse)
My other possible choice
Aero-Tech H135W DMS Motor, $29.99. 2 second burn time, 225.84 Ns (total impulse)

Yes, I know, you are probably asking yourself, Why isn't he doing a reload motor, or a CTI Motor?
The reason for that: If I lose this rocket, I don't want to lose a (probably $80+ casing) If I lose this, I will lose a $30 altimeter, which I still won't be happy about, but it isn't as bad as losing even more money. I hope you all understand my concerns.

two more questions. First, PLEASE feel free to give your feedback on what you think would be a good name for this rocket. I want it to be something FAST, since RockSim says it will go about mach 2.08 and 8,500' or possibly more altitude on that.
And second, what color rocket do you think will be most visible in a cornfield (before the corn gets really high, so in the spring???)
Thanks,
