the limits will be altimeter, some will bot deploy if they do not see a big enough change in altitude. Some require 300 ft and some not so much. there are only a few altimeters that will allow to to fly a C DD rocket but it is possible.
If you are new to DD then you might want to use a little larger air frame to start with.
Near idiot proof, as I proved!
Singly deploy, piston design, CTI two grain 54mm J-280 Smokey Sam (11 sec delay) to 4500 feet or so.
Check out my flights in the Launch Logs under the rocket name Toothless. The delay is from my personal flight logs.
Simple meat and potatoes type rocket. Big and easy to spot.

Jack,
If you’d like to talk over altimeters, e-bay, etc and see some of my designs in person I’d be happy to help you!

We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
