OMG, that Saturn will be amazing! I assume most of it, if not all is printed on those big sheets? It will really be interesting to see how this holds up.
I wonder if it will get enough altitude for the chute to work. Some delicate sport rockets (usually scale) employ a cord that is attached at or near the top and bottom. The cord sits outside the body at launch and the the 'chute is attached nominally in the middle so that the rocket is forced to recover horizontally. Since air rockets are so light, this might be a good strategy. Even an unopened 'chute might serve to keep it horizontal. My big (by my standards) HoJo looked like it would have been fine if it hadn't transitioned to lawn dart recovery about half-way down. Just 'thinking' out loud.
