Pig Soooiiieee!!
Thanks for all the comments, gents. A few responses:
MOTOR; Planning to go with D-24 [18mm]. Will order from Dynasoar this weekend. Considered going E6, but too many construction problems.
LAUNCH ROD/GUIDE: I plan to initially use a slight angle rail (NAR/AMA illegal; but I have access to an abandoned WW2 training field).
I am strongly considering make a hole through the fuselage to use as a "launch lug". I would do this using a brass tube that has been sharpened. Remove the brass tube, then add a little thin foam CA glue to reinforce the hole/tube. I would size the hole for a 3/16 launch rod.
