Help! - Forgotten Motor Mount for FT Spitfire

Hey Everyone,

So I decided to support the Flitetest guys and buy a Spitfire SBK. In my haste to buy all the components I needed from Hobbyking I forgot the accessories pack that is separate from the NTM 28-26 motor. So today all my stuff arrived and when I went to put my powerpod together I realized my mistake. Basically, I'm wondering where I can get another motor mount that will work, or some way to jury rig a way to mount it. To order it from Hobbyking would take 3-4 weeks and Express is 30$ for a 2$ part. If anyone knows somewhere in North America I could get a similar mount shipped express to get it fairly quick I would be very grateful.

P.S. Would a Park 370 Motor Mount work?

If you have some light plywood left from making the firewall you could make one, I've also seen guys make them out of thin guage steel.

Another ? You need to ask yourself is "did I get the prop adapter?" Because I now some of hobbykings accessorie packs include the motor mount and prop adapter so if you didn't get one did you get the other?

Well, Damn.. lol
I wasn't quite to that point and yes, It seems I need that too, however, I can probably get an adapter from someone I know, but I really don't think he has any motor mounts lying around..
I'm looking into making one myself, we'll see how that goes..
