Model plane engine mount

Some Thingiverse users have encountered issues downloading .scad files directly. If you end up with empty files, try downloading all files as a zip, then open the archive and extract the .scad file. This part was designed for my son's homemade model plane, but he did not use it. Nonetheless, I think it showcases some innovative techniques in OpenSCAD, so I decided to upload it anyway. And hey, you might find it more useful than he did. In essence, the motor is screwed into the mount, and the mount is attached to the front of the plane. It leaves a small gap around the edge for the motor to spin, and has space for screws, wires, etc. It's designed for a RaceStar BR2205 brushless motor, but you can set variables to match it to almost any small motor. v2: Updated with Customizer v3: Changed screwplate design with sinkhole
