Model Rocket with multiple motors and multiple stages?

Question

Is it at all possible for a model rockets to work using 12 motors divided between 3 series. The custom design uses 7 motors in the first stage, 4 motors in the second stage, and then 1 single motor in the third stage. Would this work or explode?

Answer 1

It would work but you would need to mount the motors for the each stage over the next to get the proper ingnition.  The Russians used to do engines like this in clusters.

Good luck and hope this helps.
