In order to compare the AVERRUN SINGLE DRIVE with the OS BELT DRIVE, I modified a plane to be able to install both engines.

With no time to wait for CNC cut parts from RS, I did the necessary parts with a dremel ....

I used 4 mm carbon plywood sandwich for the front and side supports, and a 1 mm carbon plate for the rear one.

Robert HIRSCH recommended me a rigid front and soft rear support, but I had to install the SINGLE DRIVE as the OS with four soft mounts on the front, and 2 at the rear.

Arnaud POYET who test flew the engine tried both, rigid and soft mounted, and didn't noticed any difference.

With the KONTRONIK wires on the opposite side of the OS, I extended by 10 cm the wires between the FUTABA ESC and the engine with PRC Silicone Wire 12 AWG.

Installation is complete ... next the ESC settings and first flights 😎😎
