I'm more inclined to wonder if RockSim can even simulate either rocket properly. I was unable to get any sort of cone rocket to be stable when I was trying it out (a few months back) and yet there I was looking at the article from MRM discussing such a rocket. One thing I never tried was the "Finless" rocket (the one with the conical shroud at the aft end) but frankly I'm not sure it would make a difference. I don't think RockSim can simulate a rocket that gets stability from something that doesn't look like a fin.
