I don’t think that will be an issue with a .6 burn time

Forgot about grain collapse.  Looks like some more research is in order.  It is 
rocket science after all :-)

 

Thanks all,

 At 92 g's You could collapse the propellant grains and make a big boom!  Fiber 
glassing the fins will not help in that case.

I'm thinking of flying a 4" Goblin (stock build + fin fillets) on a CTI K2045.  
I've flown this rocket on a number of K motors including 2 successful K1100 
flights.  The K1100 flights pulled 40g's and reached 1,000 MPH.  A K2045 flight 
sims to 92g's and 1100+ MPH.  Any thoughts? 






Also, does CTI V-Max propellant use standard delay charges or are electronics 
needed like AT Warp9 propellant?
