engine mount pics for GP Matt Chapman CAP 580
I am in process of putting together the CAP and was going to use a Saito 100 for the powerplant. I choose this engine because it it is the only thing I have to use besides a .46FX. As much as I like the .46 I like 4 stroke power for these types of planes. Plus the Saito 100 the power I am looking for.
Can any of y'all take some pics or have some pics on how you installed the engine and the throttle linkage. I haven't yet got to that part but was looking for what worked out for you guys. Also what props seem to work best. I have 14x6 14x8 and 15x4 and 16x4. I have no clue what the ground clearance is with this so the 15x4 and 16x4 may not work. Also not sure if those would be much fun for this type of plane.
Thanks
