Default Mount

Manufacturers should have to provide mounts for their engines. BUT.. then they couldn't advertise how light they are..
There is less than $4.oo worth of aluminum and a few minutes of machine time in a 3" diameter mount with legs to bolt the engine onto...Been there....

Default Mount for a BME50?

I have machined 2 mounts, one for the BME44 and one for the BME50. Obviously, the mounts are identical. I made some improvements on the new on making it lighter. The mounts that I made make it VERY, VERY easy to get the engine mounted to
P E R F E C T L Y line the prop shaft dead center of the cowl hole.

I have to say though that since this is custom work, I spent about 11 hours machining each one.

I have not tried them, but they say the Hangar 9 mount works well.

I've used a Hanger 9 Metal Universal Mount on my BME44. The beam is slotted, so you don't have to drill. I've had over 50 flights on my Sig Sukhoi without anything coming loose(knock on wood).

I concur with the H9 aluminum mount. I have well over 150 flights on my 29% Edge with a BME 50. No problems at all.
