Yes, I do, Rusty. Its only 5/8" offset to the
left and I am hoping that I can trim that with my leg flaring (I wish). If
necessary I'll build a new motor mount. Some of the placement of the tubes
in this one was not well thought out and has caused me to do endless work
arounds. So in some ways, something to motivate me to do a new motor mount
would be a blessing.

redrive
Well, 'bout ready to place my order for my
Monster 76/88 prop from Performance Propellers. Tracy's is 74/88 but he
feels that with the 2.85 even longer diameter props can be accommodated.
If too much prop, Clark Lydick will trim the diameter. So will ship my
RD-1B to Tracy to have it converted to a 2.85 RD-1C after I finish attending a
couple more flyins in May. Hard to get his "vertical" take off out of my
mind.

Do you have
a left offset in your mount? I sure wish I didn't, but it seemed like a
good idea at the time. Now I just can't stomach the monumental re-work
that would be required to go back to zero offset.
