Hi Dan, when I set up my contra first I cut back the front of the fus so that there was about 2 mm gap behind the spinner ( zero side thrust and approx .5 down thrust), since then I have upgraded my Contra to a Vlll version which added 3mm to this gap and I also decided to use a Hyde mount for Neu motors which added approx 5mmm In total I now had a gap behind spinner of approx 8 mm. I had 2 choices, one was to move my firewall to suit and second was to put a spacer to cover the gap. I decided I was happy with the position of the firewall and didn't want to move it in case I didn't get it exactly right so I went with the second option which as you can see from the photos was to fill the gap with a ring of carbon fibre painted to suit. It's not perfect but I feel it's adequate for this season. When the model is flying you can't see it.
