7 Main Gear Bag 4 After installing the belt pulley, check the direction of the tail rotor. Turn the main rotor clockwise. The tail must also turn clockwise. Bag 4 1x 10x16x0,5 4x M3x8 1x 10x16x0,2 1x 1x 10x16x0,5 3x16 1x M2,5x8 Please apply grease to the one way bearing. 10x16x0,2 After mounting the main gear, it will have 1 mm axial play.

9 Rotor Head Bag 10 1 M3x6 M4x12 Apply grease to bearing. Mounting direction is not critical. 4x12x1 Small inner diameter (6,0mm) 10,5x14x1 8x11x1 8x14x4 Note: The washer with the larger inner diameter has play on the spindle shaft. The washer with the smaller inner diameter fits tightly. Prior to assembly, please supply silicon oil or grease on o-rings and spindle shaft.
10 Motor Installation Bag 6 Bag 6 6x M3x10 1x M3x3 4x M2,5x10 Installation of Motor and Gear Mesh 1) Mount the motor as shown in image (1), using the four countersunk screws M3x10. Make sure that the M3x3 set screw is placed at the flattened area of the motor shaft. Do not fasten the set screw now (it can only be used once!) - the pinion will be positioned later. M2,5x10 Do not tighten yet! M2,5x10 2) Mount the motor plate, as shown in (2), using the four set screws M2.
11 Wiring RC Components Do not connect the orange wire - unless you are using PRO-Version of the (Mini-) VBar. Installation and Operation of the YGE controller in LOGO 480 This YGE 90 LV controller is a special edition for Mikado Model Helicopters. The controller has a Power-BEC and its software is pre-programmed for LOGO helicopters. The current version contains the internal governor (constant head speed) and has a pre-programmed BEC voltage of 5.7 V.
12 Wiring RC Components + Battery Mounting We recommend the use of the anti-static kit (item no. 4358 included here). This reduces potential effects of static discharge of the belt. Step 1: Connect one eye of the short wire to the tail boom and the other to the tail drive pulley. Step 3: Attach the second short wire to the motor plate and connect it to the wire on the tail boom. Step 2: Attach the eye of the long wire to the upper or the lower surface of the tail boom.
13 Canopy and Overview The canopy of the LOGO 480 is mounted via four attachment points. The two attachment points in the front ensure that the canopy sits well on the chassis during flight. In the back, the canopy is attached by two rubber grommets. Important note: A special feature of the Logo 480 canopy ist that it the back part is fully closed. Take your time when mounting and dismounting the canopy.
