A couple weeks. I asked for 4" rails, but he already had a cnc program for 5" rails.

Swordfish/240 is perfect!

I planed on either a T-180 or Castle 240 hv esc for my 40" DF mono with that 5692!

I use the turnigy 180. It works fine with smaller props. The esc probably wont take larger props though. To get all the performance out of that motor, I'd opt for the 240 if you have the $$$$.

Yep the 240 hv just sitting hear waiting to be used LOL......... I think im gonna have to go with a different motor due to the waiting period of the mount....maybe a 2215 with that castle esc on 10s2p in my DF40".

Your mount looks GREAT!

I also had a hard time finding universal mounts so I made my own mounts from 3mm carbon fiber board and bonded them in the hull.

Thanks, they work great too. I can't believe how strong that CF board is. I have them bolted in using all the mounting holes and when I grab the motors and try to move them it feels like they are bolted to concrete.

Thats the nicest dual motor set-up i've seen so far:bowdown:
Know i wish my DF mono hull wasnt set up for a single motor!
