do these figures sound right? I have a competitor 3(3" dia.). I plan to fly with the nose pinned (2 ea. 2-56 nylon screws), booster section unpinned. my figures suggest that I will need approximately 87 lb.s of force to shear the pins and about #50 for the booster. oddly enough my calculations show that the same amount of bp (approx. 0.8 cm^3)will work for both charges. does that sound about right? thanks,
Rex
