ABSTRACT:
An improved engine mount for model airplanes which significantly increases usable engine power by reducing engine oscillation and thereby also engine power loss due to such oscillation and which greatly facilitates installation and removal of the engine. The mount comprises a relatively stiff mounting block substantially coaxial with the engine crankshaft rotation axis and extending between and rigidly secured to the rear end of the engine crankcase and an engine mounting wall or the like on the airplane at the rear of the engine. The preferred engine mount has a generally cylindrical spool-like shape with front and rear end flanges containing holes to receive screws for securing the mount to the engine and engine mounting wall.
