Build The Motor Mount - GREAT PLANES ElectriCub Instruction Manual

5. On the LE of the rudder, drill a 1/16" hole, centered
in the LE of the tailgear support, 3/8" from the bottom of
the rudder.
6. Use the threaded end of one of the threaded pushrod
wires to file a small slot in the LE of the tailgear support for
the 1/16" tailgear wire. Test fit the tailgear wire in the rudder.
Do not glue it in place until after the rudder is covered.

Build the Motor Mount

Important: If you will be installing a motor with a diameter
of 1-29/64" (such as a Great Planes S-600 motor with a flux
ring) sand the raised area of the die-cut 1/8" plywood motor
mount sides flat.
1. Drill a 1/8" hole at each of the punch marks on the die-cut
1/8" plywood motor mount back and motor mount front.
2. Glue the two lower motor mount sides perpendicular to
the motor mount back.
3. Glue the two upper motor mount sides perpendicular
to the motor mount back.
4. Glue the motor mount front, flush with the motor
mount sides.
5. Use medium CA to reinforce all the glue joints on the
motor mount.
6. If you will be using an S-600 direct drive motor, test fit
the motor in the motor mount and secure it with two 3mm x
6mm machine screws and a rubber band at the rear.
