Hi all,
I recently purchased the inspire mini. Unfortunately during construction I glues the lower horizontal plate of the motor cage the wrong way so I don't think I will have the correct thrust line. Is it possible to buy replacement motor cages anywhere?
Will a washer in one or two of the mount mount corners help give the correct alignment? Eyeballing it, it looks correct, but the bottom plate is definitely upside down.
Thanks very much!

If the thrust line looks about right I would fly it. It is a very well behaved plane - very smooth and flies incredibly light. Just do the usual flight checks to check thrustline.
i.e. Fly straight and level and shut power to see if it climbs or descends too suddenly. Also fly staright and level and pull vertical to see if it goes off to one side.
