According to the instructions I need 2 degrees downthrust and one degree right thrust. Is this built right into the firewall? If not how do I achieve the proper thrust? I will be installing an os .46fx.

Washers work for me...two on the top left and one on the bottom left...all under the engine mount between the firewall.

When you say top left and bottom left may i assume you mean looking at it from the cockpit?

Also was there any particular size washer?

Yup, you are correct, looking forward....and I really just use whatever small washers are in the "fastener box" leftovers, mainly.

Thanks Mike. I just picked up the MAGIC today. I have a few finishing touches to make on my 300s,ultimate,and stagger bee. I hope to start assembling it this weekend.

I read alot of posts on the Magic and decided that with a 46fx up front I will mount my rudder servo in front of the ver. fin. Hopefully I can balance it with no lead. Can't wait.



Thanks again.

I'm putting a Magic Extra together now, should have it finished tonight. Has anyone used a gyro with this plane? If so, which is a good choice?
