Title: Enya 53 -4C setup for Rear Exhaust
Post by: Martin Quartim on January 13, 2011, 11:55:13 AM

The OS 56FSa  90o Elbow fits perfectly with the Enya 53-4c for a in cowl rear exhaust.

Planing to use it with a Pat Johnston SpitFire Mk XIV 626 in the future.

Total weight in this configuration 430g - 15.2Oz

Aloha Mike!

A feature I will try with this engine is to run it in reverse using a pusher prop. I have to thank that info to Bob Zambelli who point it out how easy it is to setup the Enya 53-4C for reverse rotation.

JXF has a  13x6  pusher prop that should work dandy. I have been using the JXF for electric,  they are stronger then regular Top Flite Power point, so I am not one bit afraid of using them. Most of my friends down here are also using the JXF E props.

These are the links for the electric and regular JXF 13x6 Pusher props.

Just for reference, here are some shots of the engine mounted on the SV-11 ARF.  The Enya 53 is so compact that it fits completely inside the cowl. The engine is not seated all the way in because the mounts are a bit narrow on the SV-11 and there is about 1/16  to go.
