Today I discovered an issue with my flight yesterday at Airfest. Everything seemed fine with the flight so I thought it was a success. I had dual deploy and today discovered the drogue ematch did not ignite the powder in the charge well. I did not have the ematch buried in powder but it was on top and easily should have ignited the powder. Thankfully the flight was on a J motor and I had engine back up and the drogue was released. I am wondering if there’s a chance the ematch was bad? Only the tip of the pyrogen or whatever it is burned a little and the rest is unburned. I will attach a picture of the two ematches used for this flight. The ematch on the main worked fine. This is my first failure with dual deploy so far.
