ORIGINAL: inverted flyer

not sure how far on in the build you are but i moved my firewall back 1 1/4" to accomodate the saito and now theres no problem at all - conventional throttle link -

i.F.

I have already got most of the fuse framed. I had thought about moving the the f/w back, but I was concerned about having room for the fuel tank and also didn't want to mess with redesigning the hatch and bulkheads. I still have hopes of putting a 10 oz. flex tank in - if I can find one...
Then there's the issue of mounting it sideways - I still needed the throttle control rod to go over or under the fuel tank.
So what prop do you run? (I'm assuming you used a .72 instead of the .82) And which gear did you use to get the ground clearance?

Thanks again for the feedback.
