ABSTRACT:
A test stand for model airplane engines consisting of a base and a plate movable in relation to the base. The plate has parallel sides, a first end and a second end. Bearings are disposed between the plate and the base to facilitate movement of the plate. The base has flanges which overlap the sides of the plate to couple the plate with the base. A member attached to the plate forms a shoulder which engages one of the flanges of the base to limit the movement of the plate. The plate has a peripheral slot at the first end, and a plurality of openings adjacent the peripheral slot whereby an engine may be positioned in the slot with its propeller adjacent the first end and bolts inserted through the openings to secure the engine to the plate. A spring scale with a spring biased extensible portion is secured to the plate with the extensible portion attached to the base such that the force exerted to move the plate in relation to the base may be measured.
