Default RE: Excelleron 90

Haven't run it yet, but the design is VERY similar to the MK. Been around for years. Basically, two firm rubber isolators, a front and rear, on each side, are bolted on THEIR ends to spacers to keep the engine beams off the fuselage mounting parts. This permits the engine to "rock" side-to-side, but not up and down, or fore-aft, so it holds alignment. I've found them to work pretty well in the past, although not very long lived, as the rubber isolators wear QUICKLY.

I'll post findings on the motor and mount after some break in runs this weekend.
