1. Locate the plywood motor mount. Position it on the
fuselage so that the top screw mounting hole is in line with
the fuselage. Glue the mount to the front of the fuselage.

2. Depending on the confi guration of your motor you may
need to make clearance behind the fi rewall for the motor
shaft. Place your motor on the mount to see if any foam
makes contact with any part of the motor. Remove the foam
under the mount as needed. This can be done with a high
speed motor tool, a drill bit or a soldering iron. If you use
a soldering iron, test the temperature of the iron on a foam
scrap to be sure the heat is not so hot that you cannot control
the rate that the foam melts.
