Motor Installation

Motor Installation
The airplane was originally designed around a motor-on-a-stick
system, but has been changed to an outrunner mount.
Option #1: Outrunner
After the model is covered, slide the outrunner mount into position in
the nose. You may use some scrap ¼ tri-stock balsa as reinforcement
as needed.
Option #2: Motor-on-a-stick
The electric motor installation is shown below. Fill in the nose area
with scrap balsa. Take 2 hardwood sticks and glue them together,
then slid that into the slot in the nose, setting the desired right thrust.
Bolt the gearbox and motor to the stick, with the motor hanging off the
side, like a glow motor.
Landing Gear Installation
Using the supplied pre-bent wire landing gear mount it with the 6 nylon
straps and screws as shown in the picture and the plans.
