Next, install the motor/engine. The center and offset marks have been scribed into
the front of the firewall with a laser. Use a mounting template and align with the
marks on the firewall. Be sure to use the offset line to the right of the vertical center

The distance from the front face of the motor box to the motor drive washer is 5.43"
(138mm) on the electric version. On the gas version it is 6 3/8" (162mm). Use
standoffs in conjunction with your motor to achieve this length. To ensure proper
cooling, the recommended location for mounting the ESC is on the bottom of the
motor box as shown in the picture below.
