Default RE: Bird of Time - power pod

I put an 0.49 glow engine on a similar glider. I made the mount myself, out of plywood. A hole in the plywood accepted the wing rod, so it was secure. I cut out an inset for the engine (thrust line slightly positive to the wing) and attached the fuel tank, a small one, to the other side of the pylon. It worked okay, then I got a winch and gave up on the power pylon.
