Peter Y. Unfortunately the motor has to be mounted inverted. Unless you are willing to cut off the nose of the airplane. There is no cowl. The nose of the plane is a continuous sheet. Two spars pass thru the firewall and are used for the motor mounts. These spars are quite close to the top of the sheeting, making it difficult to cut them off and save the existing nose sheeting. If you did cut the nose off you would have to reinforce the firewall.

I love the way mine flys. Using a TT46 Pro and a 11X5 APC prop.
