Your right Doug, the price for the Rotax portion is outrages at more than $1100.
That is why I started making them for other guys. I just never got around to
making the mount between the firewall and the engine. I'm now getting to that
point so I need a drawing or something to make that mount.
Here is a picture of my Ring Mount.

| Subject: | Thrust Centerline of the 2200A |
I recently noticed that the centerline of my Jabiru 2200A was pointing downward
a degree or so, relative to the longitudinal centerline of my 701. I have ordered
new rubber motor mounts from Jabiru USA as the existing mounts are showing
some surface cracks and generally are sagging.
The question I have is what if any advantage would there be to shim the centerline
of thrust to any angle other than parallel to the centerline of the plane
as seen from the side view. When viewed from above I have the required 3 degrees,
(23 mm measured at the back of the engine), of offset thrust to the passenger
side. Just curious if anyone running the same combination might have experimented
with the thrust centerline in any way. Pro's Con's ?/
Thanks....Don

The engine mount fro my 701 looks "crooked" when you look along it with
reference to the airplane. I checked into it and its supposed to be that
way. It is built to counteract torque from the engine, and/or ?P factor or
whatever. But first time I noticed this I though the thing was made wrong!
If I remember, I think the engine mount pointed down a bit and maybe a hair
to the right?? Can't recall for sure.
Don't know about the Jabiru though, or whether messing with shims might do
more harm than good. When I called about my Rotax mount they said it was
designed especially for all the forces of the full throttle engine, and was
supposed to be that way.

| Subject: | Flaperon limits? |
I can't seem to find the flaperon deflections for my 701. I have the neutral
position identified, but I am unsure how how far up and down from neutral
the slots need to be cut.
Thanks,

A while ago there was the tradition of a daily progress pic.
Well, this is from a few weeks ago, but it shows progress.
