Twist 40 engine mounting
 
Ok i got my 2nd order of twists (liked my first one so much bought 2 more) and the one i am building now will have the new Saito Fa-82a four stroke engine, i am wondering how some of you with this same setup attacked the problems of the throtle benign on the wrong side and it not fiting nicely in the enigne mount, plus what engine mount did you use did you use the stock one or used something else

**please be specific on what you used, i.e. Parts numbers, product, etc, etc,


-Thanks
Yuruki

well i guess either nobody knows or nobody cares (which that can't be true). we already forced our minds to think up away to get it to work and about 2 weeks ago we got it. The Tiwst fly's perfect with the FA-82a, i could not believe how well it climbed we still need to work a Little bit on the CG but other than that, it is perfect.

After flying my father-in-laws twist if I got one I want a Saito 82 on it. I would cut the checks off of it and side mount the engine. I wouldn't care what it looked like because it would be easyer to do. Besides a Twist rolls so fast anyway who could tell from the ground.
