I had a catastrophic lawn dart experience with my favorite rocket several weeks ago so I decided to go to a redundant deployment on at least the apogee drogue event to insure not having another bad experience. I used an Eggtimer Quark and Apogee to achieve this. In concept it worked but I did suffer some damage the body tube... ( 38 MM cardboard, size of charges pretested).
Question is ... does the first e-charge ignite the second causing the deployment gasses to double then causing the damage... should I use half size charges when setting them up in a combination for redundancy?
