When I try to luanch a rocket it always bounces along the ground. I make paper tubes about the width of a pen the wrap tape around it. Then I glue four trianlge fins to the rocket and another tube to hold the rocket on a small luanching rod. Closing one end off and packing gunpowder(from Estes rockets)into the open end of the tube. I use the Estes Electronic Luanch System. I think the problem lies with center of gravity.
