Default RE: Byron F16 conversion into EDF....

Props:
You are correct. The original ply mount for the shroud was very weak. The ply mount in the photos is 3/16" lite ply. The old ply mount fell out of the plane when my friend was cleaning all of the glow fuel out so I just used it as a template for the new ply bulkhead. The aluminum pieces you see are the backing plates for the plug in wing "C" channels (located on the other side of the mount). I don't have a photo of the other side of the bulkhead. I have made some posts on RCG and RCU. On RCG I am "a-10pilot". Also do a search on RCG for Bob Ruff (bruff) and for Clay (Racer1). They have both done Byron fan conversions.
