I got this engine from Scott Ellingson two years ago and just getting around to putting it on a plane. Ill be installing it on a GP giant stick. My question is what kind of motor mount should I use? If anyone out there is flying this engine how do you like it?

What engine are you talking about Dave.
Do you have a picture? A discription?
A lot of conversions are mounted with a flat plate bolted to the fire wall.
Some have stand offs, or spacers.
We need more info, there are several 38cc macs out there.

It's there now, thanks Dave
The best thing to do is ask Scott.

The picture is a little small for me to see, even at 300% enlarged.

Dave you'll need a beam type engine mount like the one that Dubro's sells with vibration dampers or the one like H9 sells for 1/4 scale planes.
Use the aluminum kind I think that the plastic ones may break with the torke these engines develop.

I had this very engine installed on a GP Giant Big Stick and Scott told me to use the largest metal Du-Bro mount. I belive it is the one for 120 4 stoke engines. They are a little expensive, but will worth it. Makes the installation just like a glow engine and the shock absorbing is a nice feature. Take a look at the pic. I had trouble getting mine started and Scott took it back and I upgraded to a 42cc w/ei I plan on using on the giant big stick. You will need a starter that spins this engine at least 1000rpm to get it started, but once it is started you'll love the power it has.
Thanks
