    Default Rotax 912iS on a KF-IV

    We finally got the engine mount designed, calculated and welded. We probably over designed it an it came out a bit heavy (an extra lb)

    That's awesome! Nicely done!

    Where are you going with the oil tank?
    Are you planning on the smooth or round cowl?

    We intend to use the round cowl but it does not fit because we moved the engine about 4" forword.

    Great Job.....I think you are going to like it....everything I have heard about the iS is that it exceeds expectations....particularily on fuel burn.
