I'm thinking that down scaling APCP motors to that size that the propellent has a hard time sustaining pressure, heat or both. The igniters are also filling up most of the core. They must absorb some of the heat.I've mentioned this elsewhere, but remember that APCP burns more slowly when cold. More chuffs in winter months. They can be minimized. Keep motors in an inside pocket or in a small cooler that was loaded with warm bricks until ready to install them. Get it out to the pad, clip up, and push the button. Not frantically but don't waste time. Small motors will cool down more quickly than larger ones.
