I posted a message a couple of years ago on making hot skinny igniters for small composite engines - you should be able to search it up by title: "magnet wire igniters" and date: Oct 7 2001.

The stock ignitor was just a skinny coppertail. A former teammate swore by the old MRC ignitors with the glass beads. I've made some Firestar/Magnelite ignitors using 30ga wirewrap wire and Thermalite wrap for the resistive element that have worked in the small composites from B7 to D3.

FWIW. Good, useful articles. On topic, too (though it was a few years ago:)
