Friends call me "Bakya"
Does this motor have front mounting holes?
If not then how to mount this motor on this plane?
Redesign the motor mount? or reverse the shaft?
If reverse the shaft, then what is the correct procedure?

NO. The extra power compensates the big battery weight.

@ crazypilot: where do you get those motor mounts used in your both planes...? Did they come along with ARF or you purchased them separately..?

Sir, I purchased them separately but they also come with motors and are available at HobbyKing too. A wide variety of mounts are available on HK for every type of plane and use. Thx
