motor whilst you are assembling the super structure. Like some means of
restraining the screw heads on the back of the rear bulkhead.
Unless, of course in the XS build manual there is already instructions to
allow for this?!<

As well as the above the upper attachment bolts are very inaccessible. To
ease removal and refitting the upper bolts can be replaced by a captive
cover. The motor is slid into position from below and retained in this
position using just the lower bolts. A plug socket arrangement (with
locking tab) enables rapid electrical connection. Not an easy job to do
retrospectively so best thought about before the fuselage top goes on.
