Quest Magnum Sport Loader #3012 Build, Part 3 Engine Mount B

The two engine mount tubes are glued side by side with the ends even.

Don't just punch a slit with your knife for the hook bend, take the extra moment to mark the high and low centers and the 1/4" slit mark.
The fit of the half moon centering ring notches have to line up with the hook position.



TIP: Don't use masking tape to retain the engine hooks. Electrical tape will last much longer.

Both the hooks got a half wrap of tape.


The half moon centering rings are laser cut out of Letramax material. Laser cutting leaves soot that will get everywhere and leaving black marks on you and the engine mount tubes.

Wipe off the outside edges with a paper towel before thinking about gluing them on the engine mount tubes.
