TRI-FOLD MOUNTS ON SMALL DIAMETER BODY TUBES -

Tri-fold shock cord mounts can block the ejection of a parachute.

On BT-5, BT-20 and BT-50 sized models, drop the tri-fold mounts and go with Kevlar tied to the engine mount.

BT-5 models with this type of mount are especially problematic. This was more common years back when mini-motor kits were introduced.
