I'm working on some minimum diamater 24mm birds. I'm using metal engine hooks. This means they're mounted outside the tube. I have two questions related to using these:
1. Are these strong enough at the top end to handle the thrust of the largest 24mm engines without beefing them up with internal coupler tube/engine block?
2. The hooks are 3.75" long to hold Estes E engines, but many other E engines are 2.75" Is coupler tube strong enough to serve as the 1" spacer to use the shorter engines with these hooks?
