eagle engine mount.
 

i have great planes engine mount for my eagle, but do i need to get a break away plate so the engine is set at the right angle or is the great planes mount ok?

RE: eagle engine mount.
 

i have an eagle i recently built... what size is yours? did you install the break away plate mounting rails? I believe the mount will be set at 0 degrees so you will have to put some spacers to give it the down and right thrust.

the rails are there. what would i be able to use as spacers? could i use washers, or wood?

RE: eagle engine mount.
 

washers is what i see on most instructions. Is there a reason you don't want to use the stock mount?

RE: eagle engine mount.
 

i dont have one.

OH!
Well it's really easy to fabricate. Let me know if you don't have the plans and i can send you a copy of that part or the specs if you need them. It will be a lot easier in the end than trying to adapt the engine mount. But if you really want to use the engine mount, then washers will do the trick.

RE: eagle engine mount.
 

yes, please send me the plans. the mount is causing me headaches with the front landing gear.

RE: eagle engine mount.
 

ok, i will bring it to work tomorrow and scan the break away plate with the dimensions and i can email it to you. Or if you want me to mail you a hard copy let me know. If you want to full plans, i will have to find out where they can make copies of them?

just that one part is fine. ill pm you my email. thanks.
