CNC aluminum motor mount system for all boats !
Hay all ! I wanted to share a motor mount design in the works for us FE high performance minded and racers alike. This is my first scetch of a universal 1500 series and simulare motor mount that can be adapted for 4'' rails or fliped over and used in a hydro . It will also have short adapters for thoughs of us who don't use rails in a hydro and would preffer a narrower mount with cf side plates and will have up and down motor plate adjustment , not a pre fixed back and forth type......It will have a ressesed area for thrust bearing and collet with a groove to access set screw on collet just incase set screw gets ressesed in the motor plate . This mount will be 1/2'' thick for super strength and will also have optional CF esc mount for mono applications....The Idea behind this mount is to be able to remove a motor from one boat to the next with maximum ease and make doing maintenance easier. There will also be a rear support for motors bigger than a 1518......Let me know what you think....I will be talking with a local who owns 2 cnc mills, 1 cnc lathe and a wet jet cutter . Let me know if this motor plate is overkill and if it needs to be simplified. I think the idea is there !
I can also ad that for a twin cat with props between sponsons a plate binding two mounts together and you have a twin mount.....
