Rocketry Victoria is in the process of building a V2 - not just any V2, but a full-scale replica!

My role in this build is deployment and here's some testing I've been doing to get a full man-rated parachute out. While on the rocket, we plan to use drag separation to pull the parachute clear of the rocket, the back-up plan is to have a car airbag in the bottom of each parachute well.
