Hmmm, I've only flown a handful of e26s (about 5 or 6), but I've flown a bunch of other 24mm Q-Jets and I love them (prob about 20-30 in total, I really like them). They tend to "stutter"/chuff a bit and then fly off, but I've never had a full-on ignition failure. I've flown them from the two clubs I frequent, Which for ROCC we just use a car battery, and the other is Dalzell. I've also flown them from an Estes PS-2 pro controller (I think that's what I had), and a circuit breaker to a 2s and 3s. Never any problems.
