Model Rocket Motor Mount Adapter Construction

This video will show you how to make an adapter so you can use small 18mm motors in a rocket kit that was designed for 24mm motors. This works with kits from Estes that have engine hooks already installed in them.

what kind of glue is that?

@MrRcpaintballer10 - That would be carpenter's wood glue.

@apogeerockets you can use a burnt out d engine as a c b and a engine adapter.

Although, I like to use spent engines for these tasks... Remember folks, never throw away used engines! They're good for a million and one uses in rocketry :)

Another great technique to add to your motor retention toolbox!

Good instructional video, but it annoys me when Estes is left out. Vern Estes is the Father of model rocketry. All other rocket companies take a back seat to Estes.
