Dean, thanks for putting me onto that Dave Brown mount.  I had seen his
rail type vibration mounts, but that Vibra Damp beam / Sport beam looks
like just the thing.  The tab mount looks interesting, but I like the
beam mount better.  For the archives, this is the mount:

I really enjoy the quality of Dave Brown's products as well - every time
I see someone at the field futzing with their fuel pump, I just pat my
Six shooter and grin (and then of course offer them some fuel...)

Bob, that is a very generous offer and I appreciate it.  Since Dean's
post just reminded me that Tower and Central are not necessarily the
authoritative sources of what's available R/C wise I checked Sullivan's
page directly and the Flex-Mount I'm using is still available (S275):

Thanks again guys!
