I am planing to build a three G rocket, about 6 1/2 feet long. My main concern is how to ignite the composites.
I recently posted about if i could dip Q2G2s in the FireStar pyrogen mix and use them to ignite three G40Ws. I got a answer about igniters; just use firstfires. However; On one of the posts someone said that I should probably try to ignite
a easier to ignite propellant than white lightning. They suggested blue thunder or black max. The Problem? Aerotech only makes the G80 in blue thunder; the G80T's trust curve is such that once ignited it reaches a peak of 24 lbs in no
time at all. As for black max, I only want to use blue thunder or white lighting to get a more 'realistic' launch.
Would this idea work to overcome the sometimes problematic character of white lightning:
insert firstfire igniter, then just pouring the liquid FireStar into the nozzle and down the propellant core. Then I have a engine FILLED with ignition materiel! (would the engine casing rupture?)
Thanks you for your time!

(its possible that the difficulty of white lightning is being over rated by me.)
