This was t' maiden flight o' me L'il Gobin 29. T' kit required some nose weight t' achieve t' proper CP/CG relationship. At t' moment I don't recall t' amount o' lead shot I epoxied into t' nose cone. I also used an Estes 29mm motor retainer system which I highly recommend. I used a 30" lightweight Top Flight parachute under deployment control o' t' Jolly Logic Chute Release set t' open at 300'. Perfect liftoff and deployment. Rocket landed within 150 feet o' t' launch pad.
