As John said above, with a small field go with smaller motors first. Two stage rockets, unless they are fairly large, will go a fair amount higher than you might be expecting. When that upper stage ignites, they REALLY head on out fast and it's easy to loose sight of the upper stage, especially if it is kind of small.

If you can, and it's a recommended motor for the rocket, try an A8-0 to A8-3 or -5. Then if that's ok, go on up to B or C boosters.

Multi-stagers are fun, but it takes and extra eye or two to track and recover all the parts.
