   The large diameter tubing gives more welding area to weld the tabs that bolt to the engine. Here is a picture of a completed mount with all the bushings and bolts. The two "Y" pieces will have to be welded to the bottom of the fuselage. If your serious about a mount give me a call 623-256-4115 glen

   Here's a few pictures more to follow. The mount is made using 4130 chromoly tubing.

   Yamaha RX-1 Engine mount for avids

   Hello All
   I am new to the site but been around airplanes  a while. I have recently built a couple of engine mounts and installed RX1 engines in Avids.
   I have been asked to build another one. So  I built a jig and am currently welding one up now. If you need one or are interested let me know.
   Ill try to post some pictures the next few days. Glen
