Georgie, 

I think you sent this to the wrong "John"!

Hi John, 
 


  
 


Sorry to have to tell you that I received no 

replies to my inquiry. 
 


  
 


I have the feeling that most people are just not 

addressing this issue. 
 


  
 


It would make a great product for somebody like 

Jerry or Chris to produce.All that would be required is 
 


an X brace with an oversize receptacle at center to 

receive plastic inserts (like props) sized to fit shaft 
 


bearings.

FWIW: 
 


I am interested in an answer to your question 

 too! It sure looks to me like some kind of nose bearing would be 

 prudent...

Hey Guys, 
 


  
 


I have a new project in the works and it 

    involves mounting a 2K watt motor. This will be my first larger
motor 

   install so I felt that some advice from the Pros 
 


would probably be appropriate. 
 


  
 


The Motor is an outrunner and I can mount it 

    from the back side directly to the firewall OR I can use standoffs
and 

   mount it from the front side of the motor. 
 


I keep feeling that there needs to be some kind 

   of a stabilizing bearing on the free end as there portends to be a 

   significant amount of rotating mass if I just 
 


bolt the thing to the firewall while a pound of 

    motor whirls around with a large prop exerting inertial rotating
energy 

   beyond the front of the cowl. It seems like 
 


If I use the stand-offs, there will be a more0D 

    rigid area between the prop and the motor, but then I worry about
the back 

   end. Should I figure out some kind of a 
 


bearing mount on the firewall? 
 


  
 

=0
D
Somebody set me straight on the accepted 

   procedure please. 
 


  
 


Thanks for you help, 
 


  
 


Georgie
