         Ideas & critiques are always welcome.  I wish I was making it to
Tracy's next weekend to catch up with the rest of you guys.  I would be
lobbying for that 2.85 redrive!  My EC-2 should be shipping soon so
hopefully I'll have this thing running on the test stand next month.

OK Tracy,
This is at least 3 or 4 of us wanting the 2.85.  Hope that is enough to

keep you going.  Also, the Gyro guys would love this drive!

Mike,
Have you seen the picture of how Mike Wills modified Tracy's redrive

plate to mount the starter at about the 8:00 o'clock position.  He used
the lower left motor mount bolt for the lower starter bolt after welding
a 'tab' onto the redrive plate for the starter itself and the upper
starter bolt.  I don't have a picture on this computer, I will see if I
can find one at work tomorrow.

         Yea, 2.85, that's the ticket!  (Not that Tracy doesn't have his
plate full already.)  Give us a sign dude!  Howzit goin on that?
         Mike's starter location is probably how I will do it.  That's one
of the pieces that I'll put on last and put it where it has room.  I'm
hoping to do a complete fire wall forward test stand so I can just swap the
whole thing over when I have it debugged.  I don't want to ground a flying
plane until I have something ready to go.
