Q Focus - Rockets

Top three questions:

1. What's the best way to build a successful rocket?

2. Is it better to have a weight on the nose for the rocket to fly more successful?

3. Would bigger wings help the rocket soar for a longer period of time?

This project answered my second question, yes you need some weight on the nose so the rocket wont just fly backwards but too much weight will make the rocket not weighted properly and result in a less successful launch. I found this out through experimenting with the nose weight from the test launches to the final launch.
