    Multi cluster ignition question

    Hi Guys, my question is as the title said. I seen a video of a world record being set with a large rocket with 100s of D12s in it and it was lit by a cap design full of black powder by the looks of it which was taped to the bottom of the rocket and an igniter into the powder to light it. Im not planning anything like that but was wondering how you guys ignite a multi cluster rocket on small estes motors.

    Go to the beginnners and education forum.

    look at the main sticky post with all the useful links in it.

    Click on the Estes Classic Collection and read the technical report on clustering.

    shreadvector, thank you very much I didn't even know about that sticky. I'll have a good read about all of that. Sorry for the post question.
