A 66 mm rocket on a J760: find the nose ballast and body length for a 3,048 m apogee
and a static margin of 2.20 calibres at launch mass, at Mach 0.3
Not yet validated: see the Accuracy page before trusting these numbers.
Start: 0.30 kg of ballast, a 1.00 m body: apogee 3128.8 m, margin 1.79 calibres
Found: 0.34 kg of ballast, a 1.11 m body (stopped: Target)
Flown again: apogee 3048.0 m, margin 2.20 calibres
Flown again, tolerances 100 times tighter: apogee 3048.0 m
