Hi,
The plans for the HM-293 call for 2mm 4130 plate for all hardware (engine mounts, cabane mounts, rear wing mounts etc). The AeroMax specifies 3mm 6061-T6 for the corresponding hardware. I have a full sheet of 6061-T6 in my shop. Would I be terribly off-target if I used the 6061-T6 material for the Pou hardware?
