Installing the A10-9L motor can be as simple as bolting the included "X-mount" to the back of the motor, and then gluing the X-mount to the nose of the plane. Strips of Blenderm tape can be added to strengthen the mounting; placing the strips on the front face of the X legs, and then folding them back onto the fuse sides and horizontal crutch. For F3P flying, the tape alone is often enough to secure the motor. While adjustments to motor thrust are rarely needed on foamies, gluing the X-mount eliminates the ability to make adjustments. With new planes, completing the first couple flights with tape only is an option to ensure thrust angles are correct, prior to gluing the X-mount.
