Among Aerotech propellent types which types are easiest to ignite? I have always leaned towards Blue Thunder for clusters because they seem easy to light. What do y'all think?
Thank you!
 
Second heada on that. Among composite propellants, a fresh Warp Nine motor is definitely NOT a procrastinator. Here’s an example.

Blues, you can damn near light them with a stiff fart.

I buy the 3-pack reloads of E28's and use slivers of the grains as my igniters for all of my motors. So far so good. I used 1-1/2 grains for Marvin the Martian's 6" O motor. It was still burning when it was ejected from the motor.
