measure this to be sure.
Hi Ernest,
I took a (bad) pic of this yesterday, and estimated some measurements as well.
Wow, that is tight.
I've not consulted Tracy, but I'm sure that he would strongly advise against recessing the PSRU mounting bolts. That would be cutting into the material that's holding the prop on to the airplane. Bad idea.
I think the best shot we have is to get lucky. If the rotor diameter is less than what is available inside the mounting bolt ring, then it's a good match. If the rotor is large enough for the magnets to fit outside the mounting bolt ring, and the stator coils will fit down over the bolt heads, and the bolt head don't induce a lot of eddy currents, then it's a match. If the moon is in secession, and Jupiter aligns with Uranus on a third Wednesday. . . awe, shucks. The only way to know is to get one and try it.
