Long-EZ 46 Conversion to Electric
I am currently building a Long-EZ 46 and converting it to electric power with an AXI 2826/10 outrunner motor. It is the RichModel version that is white with the red, blue and yellow trim. I have 2 questions:
1. Please tell me how many degrees of side thrust are designed into the firewall of this plane. I will be using a thin electric motor prop (not a pusher). The prop must be mounted in the reverse orientation on the motor shaft. The motor must also be connected in the reverse rotation. To do this I will need to counteract any thrust angle already in the model and change it to the other side.
2. Also, I have reand many posts on this site regarding the CG point for these planes. Does anyone know exactly where it should be located on this model? Any information or suggestions on how best to mount the electric motor will be appreciated.
