Hey guys,
So I have a project that I want to start working on, while I build and fly smaller 2 stage rockets to gain experience. The sustainer is already built, so I just need a booster for it... hence the reason for my inquiry.
My design will require the use of interstage rods, rather than a coupler.
Is there a rule of thumb for the amount of engagement in the interstage rods?
I will need to modify my motor mount - I already have a plan in mind, just need to know how far to have the interstage tubes protrude past the aft motor mount.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
-Mike
