It’s a nose cone for supersonic flight, how much of the flight is
supersonic? I don’t have the curves memorized, may be a silly question. If
the 509 m/s is top speed a blunter nose might be better.
Can you fashion some quantity of boat tail? Often the winners of altitude
competitions with a given kit at HPR meets I’ve been to are ones who had
“engine retainer”s whose purpose were perhaps not purely engine retaining.

Hi guys,
After testing my motors for a while I am going to try 10km with a k
(roughly 1400Ns, 600Ns average thrust). I saw a couple of records on the
Tripoli website with K250 and K300 motors close and above 30k feet. The
problem I have is that I can’t seem to get open rocket show me the magic
number. Do you guys see any improvements I can make (I only wanted to reach
the altitude that’s why I haven’t included the altimeters and parachutes)?
