First flight of one of the cluster-max rockets.  Loaded up a C6-5 and a C6-7, using Quest Q2G2 igniters with the leads twisted together.  Both motors lit and the boost was quick and straight.  Arcing over at the top of the climb, more or less horizontal at ejection.  Good chute deploy, medium length walk, landed on the field with no damage.
