The "C" in PMC stands for "CRASHING".
In the 40 years I have been involved in model rocketry I have seen FAR more CRASHES of PMCs than successful flights. Usually they are vastly underpowered or have the CG/CP relationship WILDLY "out-of-WHACK". The by-far best POWR-PRANGS I have seen have all been PMCs. They scatter plastic bits spectacularly over a wide radius. Most feature "Trash Bag-n'-Broom" so-called "recovery" systems.

Easy. Four canted motors in a Quadracant layout. The notches are already provided. Put the landing gear down on the other side to equalize drag. A tad bit of nose weight and press the button. Just flew the MPC - PMC Space 1999 Eagle horizontally on a chopped C11-0, rear eject. The chute did not deploy but the tough PMC came through with very minor damage and will fly again. Make you PMC like IRON: BULLETFROOF. And don't skimp on the POWER! |

Yep, make those PMCs like IRON.
That way they carry plenty of kinetic energy to destroy what's in their path WHEN (not if) they POWR-PRANG CRASH.
