This is only a 50 n-sec F and the delay is nowhere near 6 seconds.
Check NAR S&T regarding the delay. It tests out at 4 seconds, not 6 and the motor has enough kick to get it moving.
Probably would only hit about 350' max.

350' is too much for the field. I'm looking for a 150-200 ft flight, fairly close to Estes Saturn V altitudes. Triple D12-3 is even pushing the field's limits. We fly Generic E2X rockets on A8-5's with streamers instead of 12" chutes on this particular field.

I'm not asking for motor selection advice. I'm asking for someone to run a sim on the configurations I've indicated. Part of the fun is that it's a cluster. Stuffing a single APCP motor in it is too easy.
