A motor mount for the Tower Hobbies MK1 P51 Mustang. (This is for the older/original version of the Tower Hobbies P51 Mustang, not any of the most recent versions).
Depending on your print settings, you'll be between 28 and 40 grams (about 1 to 1.5 ounces) of weight, likely more than the stock plywood motor mount.
The idea is to hot glue this to the firewall. Two versions here: A standard one, and one with additional flange area for gluing. The motor mounting holes are just pilot/locating holes. Modify as needed.
Notes:
I printed one with 1.2mm walls and 50% fill. It feels quite strong and weighs 33 grams. You might try 0.8mm walls and maybe 35% fill if you want something lighter (about 6 grams less).
That may still be plenty strong once glued to the firewall.
