Does anyone have a theory on how long to make the shoulder of a nose cone or an adaptor that is intended to slide into a body tube, but come apart at ejection? In general, I'm pretty sure that as the body tube diameter increases, you will want the shoulder to be longer, but is there an optimal ratio such that things won't try to work loose or crooked during flight, but yet minimize weight and maximize space inside the tube for payload/recovery device?
Specifically, I'm working on a design for a 3in tube, but I'm interested in a general recommendation if anyone has one.
Thanks
Steve
