Haven't had a chance to fly this year, but hope to fly the model with three boosters in separate tumbling stages (Moh, Lari, and Coily - The Three Stages).

I bought a box of 80 MJG Firewires from Chris Short at Chris' Rocket Supplies.

I use these for BP clusters, the mini size for B6/C6 motors, and the standard size for C11/D12 motors:

The standard size will often fit B6/C6 nozzles, but not always, they're right on the edge of being too large.

In any case, those C18/D20 motors should be great fun! I'll definitely try using them in clusters.
