I'm am about to start putting together my Hanger 9 Stick with an OS 50 SX engine however I am curious to why some prefer mounting their engines on their side while others mount their engines conventionally. I asked around at my local club but the response for mounting the engine on its' side was for cosmetic reasons rather than for functional reasons. Is this the general concenus or does mounting the engine on its' side serve a genuine purpose ?


Just curious!
