  When you say the gear life improved.could you quantify that for me?  Did they last a season with the Gator and 2 with the Hyde? Or was it 5 flights with one and a season with the other.   I'm just looking for an order of magnitude.

  Hi Ron,

   

  Very good solution.  You just added more rubber that will be more effective in isolating the vibration of the engine.  It is cleat to me that the amount of rubber is important.  Also, I have found that the engine mounts with nose rings are more effective than without nose ring.  I think the explanation is simple.  With nose ring the mount could be softer ( or more rubber).  Without nose ring the mount has to be stiffer and therefore is less effective in isolate vibrations.  I got this experience in my old Focus I.  I installed the first time the Gator mount.  I didn't like the vibration levels in the airframe and the servos gears life was noticeable down.  I replaced with the Hyde mount with nose ring and it was the best solution to dampen the vibrations.  It was evident in reducing the vibration levels in the ailerons (servos gears life was improved).
