Re: New Extreme Flight RC 48" Extra 300 EXP Build
It's time to mount the motor. Depending on which motor you're using you may need to use the provided spacers. I'm using the Tougque 2814T/820 which does not require the spacers, however if you use the 900 you will need to use the spacers. If using them go ahead and glue the two spacers together as well as the on thin fiberglass shaped spacer. The fiberglass spacer will be used on the motor side of the spacers. Locate the 3mm socket head bolts supplied and mount the motor. Be sure to use a drop of blue locktite on each bolt. You'll also see that there are laser cut baffles supplied. Chris and I flew without the baffles at SEFF, that was the warmest weather we have flown the plane in so far and we had no problems, however if you are flying in extreme hot temperatures be sure to keep an I on things and istall the baffles if you feel it's needed. They'll mount directly to the motor box as you'll see in the instruction manual. This is a good time to install the speed control as well. I'm using the Airboss Elite 45 amp control on my planes. Mount the control under the motor box with velcro or a zip tie to allow plenty of airflow over it through the opening in the lower front area of the cowl.
