RE: 1/2a House of Balsa Bonanza V35
Here's another couple of my fuse gear layout.
Motor mounted to a glassed ply nose ring I made, hollowed out FW, ESC and battery in fuel tank area, CC BEC & AR6100 in radio bay, HS-55's double sided tape mounted on their side for elevator and rudder. Probably two 6" FG arrow shaft pushrods to the back (although stiff balsa might be lighter).
I actually would have preferred to stick to the plans for the nose area and simply use the FW for mounting the motor but motors this size with high KV are hard to find with FW mounts. In order to be able to use a spinner, I had to mount the prop on the shaft rather than the can requiring the front to be modified.
