I am currently building a Madcow Super DX3 for my level 1 certification. Although I have used friction fitting for all of my mid-powered rockets, I would like to use a screw on retainer to secure my motor for my certification rocket. However, I ran into 2 issues. 1) My MMT was already secured in my rocket with a coating of epoxy on it before realizing that I needed a 1/2” or so exposed beyond my CR to use this type of retention. I have just UNDER 3/8”. 2) Although my rocket has a 54mm MMT, I had planned on using a 38mm to 54mm adaptor in order to use a 38mm motor on my initial launch. Can I use a 54mm screw on retainer for an engine which is located inside a 38-54mm adaptor? Thanks for any advice!
