Real rocket data

For typical rocket with A engine:

Apogee height 57 m
Top speed 34 m/s
Thrust time 0.5 sec
Peak acc 22 g's
Average acc 7.1 g's
Time to coast after burn out until apogee 3.7 sec
Descent rate 5 m/s
Total time of flight 14 sec

You can get approximate values for b and c engines by doubling and tripling these numbers.
