Now what in the world do you think the difference is with my planes. I've used these mounts exclusively for 10 years now and have had them in about 10 different airframes I even used one on a 26 cc gasser with a full length tuned pipe. I have ALWAYS been satisfied with the vibration damping, have never had a failure of ANY kind ( mount, airframe, servos, switches, etc. ) and after a total of at least 2000 flights have NEVER replaced any of the isolators or have never seen anything but exceptable wear on them. My Venus has the canopy and cowl screwed on with servo screws and there is next to nil wear in any of the holes.

I'm baffled [X(]


P.S. I decided after I wrote this to pull the cowl on my Venus and check. I have 307 flights on this set up and over 100 since I pulled the cowl. The mount and isolaters are like new ????
