We have a preliminary simulation result.

Assumptions:
   Launch Weight        52.87 Pounds
   Position of CG       86.08 in from nose tip
   Fin root             15.34 in
   Fin tip              8 in
   Fin semi-span        6 in
   Fin sweep            3.57 in

   Position of fin leading edge  111.83 in from nose tip

Results:
   Max Altitude         14649 ft
   Max Velocity         1350 ft/s (Mach 1.21)
   Position of CP       102.8 in from nose tip
   Stability Margin     +2.95 calibers

--------------------------------------------------------------
This simulation can be refined once the avionics are completed.
