If you're going to do a lot of clusters, I highly recommend getting into these, each kit will literally make hundreds of igniters - https://www.rocketflite.com/store/index.php?route=product/category&path=61 Longer wires are better. I've got 24's, wish I got 48's.
Here's my successful G76G flight. I put the red caps over the wires so they stay inside until the motor comes up to pressure. I'm not sure how the balance is on the 4-29, but mine hooks drastically on one motor. Still a safe flight, with safe ejection, but much less than ideal. I make sure to load on the pad so that if either motor comes up alone, the rocket will go in a safe direction. From previous failures I know it doesn't roll around, so straight lines left and right of the pad do it for me.
Failed flight: not terrible or scary.
Here is what I did tues.06,2015View attachment 250984View attachment 250985View attachment 250986
you can see what I did wrong. the 4-29 is now 16" shorter. Do you think its still stable to fly or do need to replace the 16"(or more)?
At least all 4 F15's lit
