Mount</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Hey Guys,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>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</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>would probably be appropriate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>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 </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>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 </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>If I use the stand-offs, there will be a more
rigid area between the prop and the motor, but then I worry about the back
end. Should I figure out some kind of a </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>bearing mount on the firewall?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Somebody set me straight on the accepted
procedure please. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Thanks for you help,</FONT></DIV>
