Can you add spacers in a Cesaroni for less grains?

I saw a video of using spacing adapters for an AT 29mm case making a longer case use less grains.

Is the Cesaroni the same? Can I use two 24mm grains in a 6 grain 24mm tube?

Thanks!
 
No. Minimum is using a 4 grain CTI reload in a 6 grain motor.
ie. No more than 2 spacers in a motor tube at one time.
Cheers
 
So, if you get 3 grain, you can do 1, 2 or 3 grains. And you get a 6 grain, you can do 4, 5 or 6. Correct?

Thanks!
 
Adding on to OtT, i like to get a 2 grain, 5 grains, and 6xl case. Thats been the purchasing sweet spot for me
 
Yes 3 grain and 6 grain cases allow you to fly anything from 1 to 6 grains motors. But sometimes you still need more cases. Like when the 6 grain case doesn't fit because it's too long, but you want to use a 4 or 5 grain reload.
 
EXCELLENT! It's like a big explosion of alternatives! Got to start digging into more of this.
 
Piggy bank is empty, stays empty. Every week I put a little in, then go to Hobby Lobby, or Amazon or erockets or AC Supply... Just stopped by HL and got some decal paper and Scotch Magic Tape for masking.
 
Just a note, the 24mm cases do not have spacers, the cases are as cheap as spacers would be. 29 and up has spacers.

Meaning? A spacer cost as much a case?

If I bought a 24mm 3 grain case and needed a spacer, the spacer would cost as much as a 2 grain case?

Maybe that is the reason I have not seen any spacers for sale...

Or am I misunderstanding.
