The rocketry components that you find here are a culmination of years of my experience as an electronics engineer being involved in high power rocketry. The components that I have developed are used in the design and fabrication of rockets with emphasis on deployment and tracker electronic bays. The electronic bay components allow for the re-use of bays between rockets and also to allow bays to be reconfigured as technology changes without having to rebuild completely. You will find support for 38mm BT60, 54mm, 65mm, and 75mm for all types of bays. There are also general purpose "assistants" to make building easier for wiring and marking holes for mounting.
You can get an overview of the product line on the Diagrams, How To's & Concepts page which details wiring, assembly, and concepts.
I hope that you find the products of interest and would like to incorporate them into your next rocket.
The BT60 internal 1/4" motor retainer is used for both minimum diameter rockets as well as general motor retention for any rocket motor that has a Loki forward closure with a 1/4-20 threaded end.
The BT60 internal 5/16" motor retainer is used for both minimum diameter rockets as well as general motor retention for any rocket motor that has an Aerotech forward closure with a 5/16 threaded end.

The Tri-Tube Strut is one for four supports for aligning and supporting three 65mm (2.6 inch) Blue Tube air frames. There is a 0.55 inch hole in the center to fit a standard 1/2 inch launch rod.
The 98mm Plug-In Bay is designed to install into a Wildman 98mm Nosecone coupler that has two 1/4-20 threaded rods running down from a pre-installed bulkhead at the top of the coupler. Once installed, a metal bottom stepped bulkhead is added and fastened down using 1/4-20 hardware.
The 75mm Compact Tracker Bay supplies a secure mounting for an EggFinderMini tracker and a Turnigy 2S 850mAh 25-50C LiPo in a nosecone. The 75mm EggFinderMini Compact Tracker Bay is designed to install on a bulkhead using two 4-40 machine screws in nosecone bays 75mm and larger in diameter. The bay height is 2.75 inches and with an installed EggFinderMini tracker with a stubby antenna the total height is still only 3.5 inches. The bay has a central 3/8" clearance hole for a threaded rod to go through for attaching the bullhead to a nosecone.
