It is prudent to sim your kit/motor combination using the actual weight of your finished model to determine max velocity, altitude, ejection delay, etc. This will allow you to make an informed decision when selecting a suitable motor for your rocket. Please consult with a NAR or Tripoli certified member to ensure your flights are fun and safe.
I did my level 1 attempt with the Andromeda variant that has piston. This using the 54 to 38mm adapter kit with aerotech h engine. The flight was nail straight up in the sky and landing was perfect within 50 meters from the launcpad, not even a scratch on the rocket.
