One of the things that I did with my PSII Based 29mm powered Cherokee D build was to put the rail button through the body tube, and into the coupler (between the baffle's plates). It seems to be pretty secure with the screw pining the assembly together (a single layer of masking tape is making for a small shim to help snug it in). So, that leads me to my questions.
Do I really need to epoxy the coupler in place?
If I don't, am I risking damaging the rocket somehow?
I'm thinking that if I don't, I could glue in the shock cord below the coupler (teabag method), fish it through the baffle, and be able to inspect/replace it as needed. If I do epoxy it in, I'm thinking about gluing the teabag inside the coupler.
Thanks!
