Construction of the engine mount for R3600 radial engine

To set up the right position we created a weight & balance excel sheet & weighted all parts which were assembled.
After that we defined the engine position due to the weight & balance result & checked for enough space behind to acommodate the engine parts as carburetor etc.
The thrustline is located 6 inch below the upper longeron center line, no side or down thrust.
For the structural analysis and the load calculations according to FAR Part 23, we drew the engine mount on 3D.
