Default RE: Engine Mounting?

Block the fuselage so the wings are parallel to the ground. Make sure the engine is centered in the mount with the propellor parallel to the ground. Pick a spot on the centerline of the fuselage and measure to each propellor tip. For zero side thrust the distance should be the same. It is better to err on the side of a little right thrust as left thrust is usually not desirable.
