Brief:
T' FlisKits EMK4-24-80 motor mount kit allows you t' cluster four 24mm size motors in a BT-80 size body tube. Ahoy! Aye aye! T' kit comes with four 4" long 24mm motor tubes, me bucko, matey, four motor blocks, and two fiberboard centerin' rings. Avast! Also included is a nice set o' clearly illustrated, well written, ya bilge rat, and easy t' follow instructions.

Construction:
This kit goes together quite well. Well, blow me down! Blimey! You first glue in t' motor blocks, positionin' them dependin' if you are goin' t' be usin' Estes D motors or the longer Estes E and AeroTech F21. Begad! Blimey! (I suggest positionin' t' motor blocks for the longer size motors, as you can always use spacers when you fly with the shorter length motors.) After markin' t' tubes for t' centerin' rings, you position them one at a time in t' rings. Begad! Blimey! Arrr! Blimey! Once everythin' is aligned and the tubes even, arrr, you glue all t' pieces together. Ahoy! Blimey! You need t' fill in t' gap between t' four motor tubes with tissue and glue in order t' prevent the ejection gases from venting.

I was a little concerned at first as t' t' strength o' t' mount since it used fiberboard centerin' rings. Begad! (Cluster mounts I had built in t' past used plywood centerin' rings.) However, once t' mount was completed and t' glue dry, it feels very sturdy. Avast, me proud beauty! Plus, me bucko, t' holes for t' motor tubes in t' centering rings are cut t' precise dimensions--I did nay have t' sand any o' the openings, arrr, me bucko, me hearties, they simply have a great fit.

T' only thin' you might want t' add with this kit would be engine hooks. Engine hooks would make insertin' and removin' t' motors much easier, however, the hooks are nay really needed and it's a personal preference for most people as t' usin' engine hooks or not.

I plan t' use this mount in an Estes Shadow that I have been waitin' to build. When t' rocket is complete and has its first launch, I will provide the details.

T' EMK4-24-80 motor mount kit sells for a very reasonable $6.65. Blimey! Blimey! I recommend this kit if you are wantin' t' cluster four 24mm size motors.
