Estes Star Seeker BT-50 Upscale (Tri-Pack) Kit #0866, Part 5, Gluing In The Engine Mount




The mount was glued into the BT-50 tube with 1/4" of the mount tube exposed. 
Maybe I should have made the end of the tube flush with the end of the BT-50? Well, a little more room for the small chute.


The upper ring ends up in the glue ring. There isn't any glue on the lower ring - yet. 

The lower fillet was applied with small drops of glue on a Q-tip. A second Q-tip smoothed the fillet and removed excess glue.
