I launched my L1 rocket on an Aerotech reloadable H130W-14
Video shows it reaching apogee at about 14 seconds.
Good thing my delay adjustment was off.
I weighed the rocket on an accurate scale and its about 43 oz with motor
The model is quite close.
I played with increasing the weight by 1-2 lbs and altitude/time to apogee only changed 10-15%
as expected.
I want to fly it next on an I impulse but am concerned about getting the delay right.
I've attached my .ork file if you are curious.
I did not have any electronics except for JLCR for the main at 300'.
I created a model in OR and it predicted a time to apogee/delay of 7 seconds.Video shows it reaching apogee at about 14 seconds.

So I'm sure my rocket was not modeled way off (dimensions +/- 0.05 for example.)
