Hi flitetest forum

I usually catapult launch my Skywalker X8 due to the heck motor mount. But since carrying all that stuff around I was wondering if I could mount the motor on the top of the plane. Saving lot`s of props and making the X8 hand-launchable.

I have built quiet a vew planes, but I`ve never built from scratch. So I would be glad if sombody with some practical aerodynamic expirience could give me some tips about how to do this and how this change would affect the plane.

Thanks and regards
