Default RE: Excelleron 90

Hi all,
I've decided to go with my TT 120RP for power. The Saito 1.50 would have taken some major surgery on the front of the motor mounting flanges. If they were just squared off I might have tried to use the 1.50 but cast braceing to the front crank shaft housing that connects there. The pipe header will require some cutting at the bottom of the firewall. From there on a modification similar to AreoBobs setup should work. The end of the pipe will clear the fuselage past the trailing edge for the wing. I am going to use Sig hinges as per AreoBob and I purchased some of his pipe coupling tubing to connect the pipe and header. Ordered some hardware (Dubro horn, etc), servos and a battery pack (6 Volt) so here I go.
