Hello y’all! I’m fairly new at HPR builds and have a quick question. I am so used to using launch lugs but tonight I started my first HPR build - an apogee zephyr. I was so focused on doing the epoxying correctly for the internal fillets that I installed the rear bulkhead and totally forgot to epoxy the underside of the weld-nut for the rail button! :-(. How likely is that rail button to fail within the first one or two launches? I’m wanting to certify level 1 with this rocket. Ugh. Such a mistake. I watched one of apogees videos on how to fix a broken rail button so I suppose if worst comes to worst I can use their method of taking a drill bit to the bulkhead and using a dowel to go through the hole to apply epoxy. Should I just do that anyways?
Thanks everyone!!!
