Hi All;

I'm new to this hobby and have a few questions. I am nearing completion of my first electric flyer. ( http://www.hobby-lobby.com/miss2.htm)

I bought a brushless motor for it and am not sure how to mount it. It came with a star shaped piece that has multiple holes drilled into it. Some of the holes line up with holes in the motor so it can be attached to it but, I'm not sure where to go from there (no instructions). Do I need to make my own motor mount or can I purchase one?

Once I get the motor installed into the plane, How do I assure it's straight in the plane i.e. up/down and side to side?

With everything installed, where should the plane's BP be located?

Thanks in advance;

Jake T.

RCGroups.com has many different threads for electric flight. You will find more replies to your question there.

Or RCU's electric site - www.WattFlyer.com

Guess I picked the wrong site to get questions answered. Good for refferals though...

Thanks;

Jake...

If your answer can't be had directly, at least we got a direction for you to look !
Good luck.

I am trying something new. I call it an e-book made up of a series of articles.

Everything you wanted to know about electric flight.

Sir, I bow to you! Very complete. You could post #12 and 13 as a sticky.

If we get enough interest, we will probably sticky the whole e-book. Depends if we get any posts in the thread requesting that or if the administration feels it is worthy of that. For now I plan to keep adding to it.

aeajr, an excellent production, my hat is off to you. Yes, it would make a good sticky. Rodney
