in the LE of the tailgear support, 3/8" from the bottom of
the rudder.

1/8" plywood motor mount back and motor mount front.
❏ 2. Glue the two lower motor mount sides perpendicular to
the motor mount back.
❏ 3. Glue the two upper motor mount sides perpendicular
to the motor mount back.
❏ 4. Glue the motor mount front, flush with the motor

the motor in the motor mount and secure it with two 3mm x
6mm machine screws and a rubber band at the rear.
