different ENG mount for dragon lady
Hello I am assembling a dragon lady made by modeltech, the instructions tell you if you are putting an engine larger than a 100 4c you need to replace the provided engine mount with a metal engine mount, I bought a vibration reducing mount made by du-bro (recommended by the hobby shop) to mount a saito 125. The instructions give you instructions on how to fing the location of the holes to be drill to mount the the eng mount that came with the kit, but my new mount has a wider space between the holes, how do I adjust location of the holes, The original mount is spaced 1 5/8" were the new mount is spaced 2 1/2" apart. Also the instructions say if the eng is bigger than 1.08 not to use the spacer, but the saito 125 is suppose to be the same external size of a saito 100. Any help would be greatly appreatiated. this is the largest plane I assembled and my first 4 stroke, my other planes I was able to build it as the instructions called for, without too much guess work. Again thanks.
