My order is in also.

I loaded the RockSim file into OpenRocket and found that I needed to increase the nose weight from .2 oz to .7 oz to get a the rocket to show as stable (Cal => 1.0) when any engines were installed.

Is this because OpenRocket does not understand the Rings?.. or should I trust it and add the extra weight?
