well, as I have mentioned in some other thread I picked up a Smokin Rockets Mission Impossible. It is actually the first Mission Impossible made (or so I am told). It is only the Fincan, to be more precise and it came with a weird coupler to put on the rest of the body. It is a fiberglass thing that when twisted pops out for a timer. My question is: is this thing strong enough to take the shock of the parachute coming out (the shockcord attaches to the ubolt mounted on it) or will it strip out. I am thinking off mounting some screws on it just to make sure. BTW there is another part glued permantantly with 3 ridges. The coupler has 3 upside down L shaped depressions that the ridges slide into then wehn the coupler is twisted it wont pull out
also the coupler only has about 3"-3.5" protruding for the upper tube to sit on.... is this enough support for the upper body?
