Hi everyone, I'm working on my second mid-power kit, the LOC Precision "park flyer" Black Brant X. It can allegedly reach >2800' on a G motor, and can handle an H motor as well (though I'm not yet certified). I plan on doing several launches with an F motor and eventually put a G in it. The kit comes with a launch lug. Would rail buttons be beneficial or would the increased drag not be worth it? The rocket's diameter is 1.6" and I seem to recall reading that buttons greatly increase drag on rockets under 2" in diameter.
My other question is regarding the buttons themselves, if I do end up putting them on--I have several from Erockets that include the button and screw but no nut. Do I need to go to my local hardware store and get a nut for each button?
