    Paul and All,
    Michael Hayes in Australia ( Melbourne) is another one who has had
    the run
    around from Fred. He has taken the money but not supplied, with all the
    promises in the world. Perhaps someone over there should approach him on
    behalf of all the people who are disgruntled customers.
    I will pass this discussion onto Michael so that he's aware that
    he's not
    the only one.

Yes I received my mount about 2 weeks ago, I'd hope that by now he's
catching up with his backlog...the mount looks good, I now have it on my
plywood firewall mockup to start figuring out where everything will go.
I would guess that soon you'll have yours. I'm glad that I didn't wait
'til a few weeks before I needed it to order. I ndid make numerous phone
calls, which he returned, and a few e-mails which he answered.
Hope you get it soon.
Harold


What did the mount cost Harold ?
What does it weigh?

Paul  Lamar


I never thought to weigh it, but I'll take it down in a few days a get a
weight., The price was about 1200 + 103 shipping to FL. The pic in his web
site (RV9A) is my mount. At least that's what he told me prior to shipping.
It was crated very well. I believe the whole package weighed 49#. That's it
'til I get you a weight

Hi All,

Does anyone else build a engine mount for the Renesis engine other then
Conversion Concepts?  I need a five point mount.   I have had an order in
with Conversion Concepts for some time now, and should have had my mount
long ago.  I sent Fred my balance for the mount back in July, and still no
mount!  I have e-mailed Fred as to what the problem is and he told me that
he was waiting on a backorder of  isolators.  The isolators are now in, but
Fred now tells me that he has got the thrustline exactly 2 inches off on
three of his orders, and has to start all over again.  Of course one of them
is mine.  I will ask Fred for a full refund if I can find someone else who
can build me a mount.

Jerry Hey can build you a mount. What kind of airplane are you building?
