Installing the Heart: 15cc Engine Mount (Cessna 182 RC Build Ep. 2)

I continue working on the Top Flite Cessna 182 that was generously gifted to me by my RC club in appreciation for my volunteer work. In this episode, I move into one of the most important steps of the rebuild — installing the Evolution 15cc engine. This process takes more than just bolting it on. I had to carefully determine the correct mounting position, use a drill press to accurately lay out and drill the mounting holes, and make sure everything is properly aligned and secured for a solid installation. While the engine is now mounted, the aircraft is still not ready to run. The next step in this series will focus on installing the fuel tank and fuel dot, bringing us one step closer to the first engine start. — If you enjoy RC planes, engine installs, workshop builds, and bringing classic aircraft back to life, consider subscribing to follow the rest of this series. — 🔗 Follow me: 🎥 YouTube: @HobbyHicks 📌 Facebook: HobbyHicks 📷 Instagram: @HobbyHicks — #RCPlane #Cessna182 #TopFlite #RCBuild #RCFlying #ModelAirplane #GlowEngine #RCPlanes
