      Assembling the Maracana for the electric motor using the MotionRC hardware list.

      The Maracana comes with a small kit to mount the electric motor and a fairly significant error was found in the factory hardware. The glued blind nuts on the firewall are for a 4mm bolt. The bolts and washer and nuts supplied are 5mm. So a builder will need to modify accordingly. I had all the hardware for 4mm installation so I used those.
