Paul,
I have been playing with the single engine mount and was wondering if
you had any suggestions.
Also is there any correlation to the angle of the top tube to that
of the bottom tube angle?
Do the top and bottom tubes have to have an equal or similar compression
load for the bottom as the tension load is for the top?
Do they have to have equal lengths or are equal lengths more advantageous?

I would do it just like the two rotor mount.

Read all this first.

Paul,
Thanks I got all that and am working through all that info as we speak.

My Al. - BH allows me to place my Barry mounts just about anywhere I want
and I guess where they eventually go will depend on how things fit in the
cowl.
The question I want to ask is,  do you think it necessary to spread the
Barry mounts out wide (3 feet) for the single rotor which will be about
115hp, as I though the gyroscopic loads would be a lot less.

I would make them as wide as possible. It is the torque pulses they must
deal with.
