the air inlet in the fi rewall for the electric motor mount installation.

2. Mount the plywood electric motor mount to the front of
the fuselage with four 6-32 x 3/4" [19mm] machine screws,
#6 lock washers and #6 fl at washers. Be sure to use a few
drops of threadlocker on the threads of each screw.

3. On the bottom of the plywood electric motor mount you
will fi nd two mounting holes for the Great Planes 60 amp ESC
(GPMM1850). Drill a 1/16" [1.6mm] hole in the location shown
at the back of the mount. Insert and then remove a #3 x 3/8"
[10mm] self-tapping screw through each hole and then harden
the threads with a couple of drops of thin CA glue. If you are
using a different brand ESC, then drill mounting holes as needed.

4. Mount the ESC with #3 x 3/8" [10mm] self-tapping screws
and #4 fl at washers. Feed the connectors through the hole
in the bottom of the motor mount and the fi rewall so that the
connectors are inside the fuselage.
