I got the engine installed and the throttle and choke linkages all connected. things get really tight up front. Installing the engine takes some orchestration. example: getting the spark plugs cables connected as you're installing is a little bit of a challenge, also aligning the throttle linkage while installing a 16 pound engine in one hand wasn't easy. . To help with the CG, I was able to get the ignition and fuel pump batteries all the way aft under the hatch for the tail wheel assembly. I hope to get the fuel tank and RX installed as soon. I won't install the two RX batteries until I do a weight and balance check and then put in place the for final balance..
using some foam, the hatch will compress the batteries and hold in place
