I bought a Madcow 54mm FW nosecone and darn it, it didn't fit in the LOC 54mm tubing I have. I don't want to sand fiberglass, so naturally, I decided to buy all the matching Madcow FW tubing and some G10 fins and make it a minimum diameter! I think I have an idea of how I'm going to do the build in general, except motor retention and motor accommodation. I want this rocket to work with any 29, 38, or 54mm motor, from a 1 grain 29 to a 6XL grain 54. Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I think it's possible. I think the right way to do this is to add mounts for machined brass on the nosecone, but I'd be interested to hear better ways. The second question is on motor retention. I'm thinking I can just put a standard Aeropack 54mm retainer on the back end and be done with it. This way, I wouldn't have to use one of the less accommodating minimum diameter retainers that are out there. It would also enable me to use the included motor ejection charges as redundancy, which I believe most minimum diameter retainers don't allow. More importantly, though, it would allow me to use Aeropack's motor adapters to fit the smaller diameters. The only downside I can see is a little more drag. I am interested in any thoughts you guys have.
