Is there a soft mount for a Saito 2.20
I'd like to get a vibration reducing mount for my Saito 2.20. Does anyone know if the Dubro 1.20-1.80 mount will hold the 2.20 engine? Also does anyone know of any other soft mounts for large glow engines?

RE: Is there a soft mount for a Saito 2.20
The Dubro #688 has 3-1/4" arms (1.20-1.50 4-stroke and 1.20-1.80 2-cycle Engine). If they are long enough for the 2.20's mounting tabs, then it should work fine. These are very tough mounts. I love them. The vibration reduction is incredible. The cowl screws in my FuntanaS 90 never even loosened up once while I had my O.S. 1.08 and Dubro #684 mount on it. Then I changed to my Saito 1.20 with the stock mount that came with the Funtana and after a few flights I was missing a cowl screw and about to lose another. I don't think the 2.20 is going to be enough heavier than a 1.50 to matter. The #688 should be more than strong enough. Horizon says the Saito 1.80 will fit in a 1.20 mount and the 2.20 has only a slightly larger case than the 1.80.
