Are those Q2G2 igniters? They are expensive, but they are good for clustering. I tend to believe that they will work for small composite motors, but, of course, you may want to do testing. I tend to think that dipping those igniters in pyrogen will make them to large to fit through a small composite motor unless the dipping is very very light.
Congratulations on the launch! After all that work it must have felt good to see it work. Hopefully you can fly it on a calm day. All those canted flames look very impressive.
What did I tell you? Epic!
FWIW, I've used undipped Q2G2 igniters in Aerotech 24mm reloads. They worked fine.
I just found a copy of the photo that DARS used on the cover of their newsletter.

The caption reads: Actually, this is not a problem! It is just John Lees 12 C engine cluster firing 12
ejection charges at the same time. If you love fire and smoke (and , really, who
doesnt?) this model will make your day! We have more pictures of this historic
flight inside!
Awesome job John! So glad the PEPP survived to fly another day...that aerobraking is nice It would fly much better on the D's...assuming you can light than many of the little things. Oh, yeah, I stole some of the photos for my blog. If that's not OK I'll take care of it.
