| Engine Mount Kits:
EMK5-124-418-80 - $8.55 FlisKits is
proud to introduce a full line of cluster motor mount kits for the model rocket cluster
fanatics (just like us!).
The EMK5-124-418-80 Engine Mount Kit allows
you to design or convert most any BT80 based model rocket for cluster flights using one
24mm with four 18mm motors! All FlisKits engine mount kits come with highly
detailed instructions to allow for easy construction, super strong mounts and long life. |

| The EMK5-124-418-80
engine mount uses one BT-50-04 (4 inch engine tubes) surrounded by four BT-20-0275 engine
tubes, with engine blocks for each tube, centered in a star pattern with rings designed to
fit standard BT-80 body tubes with a 0.021" wall thickness. Thicker walled body
tubes can be used by lightly sanding the centering rings to fit, after assembly is
complete. This mount does NOT include engine hooks but engine hooks can be added to
the mount if desired. IMPORTANT: Anytime
you are designing a cluster model or converting a model from single motor to cluster motor
use you need to verify the stability of your model before flight. Adding more motors
to the model increases the weight in the rear of the model moving the Center of Gravity
(CG) further back and may cause instability in your model. If you are converting a
known stable model, the easiest method to assure stability is to fully load the unmodified
model for flight (motor installed, recovery device, etc) and balance this model on your
finger. This balance point is the CG of your model and you should mark this.
Then install the cluster engine mount and prep your model for flight again. You will
note that the CG has moved towards the back of the model. Add nose weight to the
nose cone until you have moved the CG back to its original point. If you are
designing your own model you should make yourself aware of model rocket stability and the
relationships between the Center of Gravity and the Center of Pressure and how to measure
both. |
