56mm FDM Motor Mount

[Ken Haines]

Anyone have one of these 56mm drop in Tilt Motor Mounts ?

I saw it on Fine Design RC, but Chris said that they are no
longer available. Turns out that they were made by Jim Williams
at Williams Racing Products in New Jersey.
Unfortunately Jim is no longer making RC items.
The plus on this mount is that it bolts in from the bottom.

I would gladly pay $100 if anyone has one in reasonable condition.
Let me Know,
Thx,
Ken

I know this is not exactly what your looking for but it’s close and it sells here for $50.https://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pr...ide_medium.jpg

Thx, but I really need a bottom bolt mount assembly.
Also need a face mounting plate on the drive end so that the motor can
essentially touch the bottom of the hull. Trying to fit a 56mm motor between a
4" boxed hull. The pictured mount would be ideal for this.

Ken, it wouldn't be too hard to make this mount a bottom mount. Couple pieces of aluminum angle instead of the rails.

Good point Terry,
Not having much other luck finding one of the Jim Williams / FDM mounts.
I may add that to my next order this weekend.
Thx

HRC makes some of the mounts Offshore sells and are the closest to the Williams mounts I’ve found.

I would give them a call and see if there is anything they can do for you.
This is one they made for me for a 2230 awhile back..

Hi Ray,
Yes I have already spoken to him.
He is pretty busy and said he could help, but
did encourage me to exhaust other options first.
He does do awesome work.
