Default RE: CMP Zero Makeover

Well is have gotten started building this CMP Zero. I thought I would start with the fuselage first. I have all of the servo's and fuel tank installed in the fuselage as far forward as possible. I am using a pull-pull system for the rudder and tail wheel. I had a little problem with the Brillelli engine and mount.[:'(] The Brillelli 46GT with the engine mount I have is 6 1/2" long so I could not use the motor box.[:@] I laminated two 3/4" pieces of plywod together and mounted it to the the firewall. That puts the Brillelli 46 hub at 8" out from the firewall. I cut the cowl and installed a Dave Brown 4" spinner using a APC 20x10 prop. Everything looks good so far. This thread and others have been a big help. Sorry no pics for now. My Computer was stolen and I am using a friends to post this. I'll post some pic's when I can get another computer
