Electric Motor / Glow Engine Installation

We are providing instructions for the installation of an
electric motor and ESC as well as the installation of a glow
engine. You should determine which you will be using before
you continue. Though the engine or the motor will mount in
a similar manner, the servos are installed differently for an
electric motor than they are for a glow engine. If you will be
installing a glow engine, skip ahead to " Install the Glow
Engine, Fuel Tank and Throttle Servo Installation" on
page 14.

can be found at the "Electric Motor and Motor Mount

2. Remove the front half of the motor mount and install
the motor to the mount and the prop adapter to the front of
