Does anyone have drawings or specs on these? I know its not an official closure but I'm just curious how others have achieved this? any good photos out there? I searched the forum but came up empty for the most part.
They still have it listed on their RCS website iirc.Aerotech was selling an HEI a few years ago

All initiators are single use.It also says: NOTE: This is a single-use device and a new initiator must be used for each motor firing.
I suspect you did, but did you check with Crazy Jim?
Following the accidents that happened at BALLS this year I don’t recommend head end ignition. Everything you want to do can be done more safely with an igniter inserted from the bottom, even in an upper stage.
What happened at Balls?
The amateur tech for HEI is poor because they are so rare. If a few were made using the tech commercial motors use the techniques would start to spread. Even the most basic mechanical interrupts would be an improvement.
