I would say no. Im the crash King... trust me. I've actually gone to mostly foam planes now... cause i've toasted way to many... and i'm not sure i'd want the engine breaking off with nylon bolts. First of all. That's what a glass or nylon mount does. and trust me... i've broken a few.. lol. Second... imagine even a nose over and your motor bouncing down the runway... not to mention the tangle from the throttle cable. Who knows... maybe you have an idea and dubro will sell them for ya! lol
