1. The Great Planes Large Brushless Motor Mount comes
with Phillips motor mounting screws and thin washers, but
some modelers prefer socket-head cap screws and regular,
thicker washers. If so, substitute the Phillips screws with
3x8mm screws (DTXC8640) and 3mm or #4 washers.
❏
2. Use a 2.0mm hex wrench to remove the set screws
from the collar on the end of the RimFire 1.20 motor shaft.
Then, reinstall them with threadlocker and securely retighten.
Refer to this photo while mounting the motor and ESC.
❏
3. Mount the motor to the mount. Adjust the mount and
tighten the bolts so the base of the prop adapter will be 6-3/8"
[162mm] from the fi rewall.
❏
4. If using the Great Planes ElectriFly 80A ESC, install
Great Planes 6mm male/4mm female bullet adapters
(GPMM3119) on the motor wires, or remove the 6mm female
bullet connectors from the ESC and solder on 4mm female
bullet connectors (GPMM3115) instead.
❏
5. If you soldered on 4mm connectors, cover the
connectors with 3/16" [5mm] heat shrink tubing (GPMM1056).
❏
6. Assemble and mount the plywood ESC mount to the
motor mount with four 4-40 x 1/2" [13mm] SHCS, #4 fl at
washers and 4-40 nuts with threadlocker. Mount the motor
mount with the motor to the fi rewall with four 8-32 x 1/2" [13mm]
