When in doubt... build hell-for-stout!
I'm a huge fan of rear eject rocket designs. These are rockets that have a spool that holds the motor and the parachute in place until the motor ejection charge fires off, which pushes the spool out the back of the rocket.
Is there any scenario that you could envision that could cause the spool to fall out of the rocket during coast phase? The spools are friction fit into the rocket.
My Columbine rocket flew and recovered great. But I'm just thinking through this and trying to stave off any possible issues when I launch my P-40
