NOVUS CP – REPLACING THE TAIL SHAFT AND TAIL ROTOR

Use a ﬂ at blade screw driver to carefully pry the tail rotor retainer from the

tail rotor shaft. Slide the tail

rotor off of the shaft. Slide

the tail rotor shaft out the

opposite side of the tail

rotor case. Slide the new

tail rotor shaft into the tail

rotor housing. Please note

that the tail rotor shaft has

a ﬂ at spot. Carefully align

the tail rotor blade to this

ﬂ at spot and slide the tail

rotor onto the shaft. Install

the tail rotor retainer.

NOVUS CP – REPLACE THE TAILBOOM

Loosen the tail boom screw

and unplug the tail motor

wire from the E-Board. It

will be necessary to cut

the motor wires near the

tail motor where the heat

shrink tubing has been

applied. While holding onto

the tail motor connector at

the front, slowly slide the

tail boom out of the frame

and off the tail motor wires.

If you notice any damage

to the tail motor wires it will

be necessary to replace the tail motor wire harness. Slide the tail motor wires

into the tail boom and reinstall the tail boom onto the helicopter. On the old tail

boom, remove the lower tail motor retention screw and remove the tail motor

gear box assembly. Run the tail motor wires through the tail motor gear box

assembly. Ensure that the tail boom is pressed far enough into the main frame

and tighten the tail boom screw on the main frame. Ensure that the tail gear

box assembly is pressed far enough onto the tail boom and ensure that the

tail rotor is vertically aligned with the main shaft. Tighten the lower tail gear

box retention screw once you are certain that everything is correct. Re-solder

the tail motor wires to the tail rotor wire harness and install heat shrink tubing.

Ensure everything is correctly installed and all bolts have been tightened.
