I assume Rocksim will adjust altitude computation based on launching from elevations other than sea level. That is, you can set the "0" altitude at some height above seal level and it will reduce the drag according to the reduced air pressure and give you the greater altitude acheived for a given rocket/motor.
But will it also calculated stability factors on this? I need to design a rocket for launching from high altitude, and I need to be able to tweak the design for launching as much for result.
Could someone please:
1: plug in a plain vanilla 3FNC
2: plug in a common motor
3: launch it from 0 elevation
4: record altitude, your selected speed to stability, and required launch rod length for that stability speed
5: reset altitude for 100,000 ft
6: launch and record the same things
If Rocksim won't do it, what will?
