<p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: "Arial","sans-serif"">Hi. I have just pulled a Ryobi from a trimmer. It saw a couple of light seasons <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>on it. I removed all the excess off of it including mag. I intend to use <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>XYZ EI from hobbycity. Also replacing the Zama carb with a 12 mm Walbro. The cylinder bore is very clean, no scratches or ridges.

</p></span></p><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: "Arial","sans-serif"">I have cut all the excess from the back cover.

</p></span></p><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: "Arial","sans-serif"">Starting to draw up plans for biplane that will be just a little bigger than my Kadet Senior. 80 inch top wing 70 inch bottom 13 inch chord, for 1950 square inches. I am will be using boost tabs <font color="#800080">http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/tm.asp?m=375915</font> <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>to cut weight <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>i.e. normal servos (48 ounce inch) and 1000 ma battery. That will cut a about pound versus using 1/5 scale size.</span></p><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: "Arial","sans-serif"">My question is does anyone have a drawing of a mount plate they could share. I have some quarter inch aluminum plate I will cut mine from. My plan is to use aluminum stand offs drilled and tapped for quarter twenty bolts to mount to the firewall with.
