Default RE: Engine too far to the left?

Your engine is mounted exactly as it was meant to be. Your factory cut motor mount is intentionally built off center to the right (from behind the plane) to counter torque, propwash, etc. <div>
</div><div>I made a mistake once building a plane by glueing in the wooden motor mount upside down, giving the opposite than desired offset. It still flew wonderfully for weeks before I discovered my mistake. You have no worries.</div>
