RE: GP Super Skybolt .60 electric conversion - step by step

Removing the box:

Box inside another box inside out. All well protected.

I started by assembling all power train.
I thought it best to begin with due to the fact that part of the fuselage to be without the set of tail. So it would be easier to work. It really was because I needed to support the fuselage on the ground to make some adjustments.

I measured the distance between the fire wall and exit the cowling in order to cut the dowels I used to make the engine mounts.
As the manual was given almost 1cm apart. The engine would be too forward.
Unfortunately, the camera crashed and I lost the pictures of the cut billet.
To make the drill holes used for wood and then went with their BRCA widening.
I left the hole up more just and the other three looser in order to have as adjust the position after spending the epoxy glue.

With the support rods screwed into the engine passed the glue and the engine fitted to the fuselage fairing put the spinner secured with tape and to fine tune the distance from the spinner before drying total:

Hitting the motor position.

Now just wait a while to dry.
