The patent application describes an igniter for use in a rocket having a predetermined spin rate during flight. The rocket includes a plurality of motors facing out from the body of the rocket and each motor is fired in a predetermined sequence. The igniter includes a squib for igniting fine black powder in the cavity of the igniter. The powder is packed in the cavity of the igniter with the density substantially like a cake. A cover member retains the powder in the cavity for a sufficient time to achieve fast ignition. (Author)
