Flight Description:
Twin Motor Cluster was intended to fly on 2 x Estes D12-3. One motor failed to initiate due to user error (one of the clips did not stay on the igniter, which was confirmed with on-board video) and cluster clip whip was pulled along for the flight, resulting in a low altitude spiral and crash landing. Rocket appears complete in tact.
