Thank you for your feedback guys.
Here's my 3" tuber flying off a 1/4" rod on a J500 last week. This rocket has 3/8" lugs, but the closest rod SARG had was 1/4". 

Launch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzvBa_0QjzM

built to take it, like a saucer, but even that whips with a K454

I wonder if TCC has half-inch launch rods. I'm pretty sure I've seen some,
but I want to confirm.
