Instruction manual

Section 13: Rotor head linkage

Before any pushrod adjustments are made center both sticks and servos on the

transmitter.

Section 12: Cyclic servo linkage

Before any pushrod adjustments are made center both sticks

and servos on the transmitter.

*Pushrod measurements include ball links from plastic end to plastic end.

Attach two 104mm pushrods to the short balls on the swashplate and to the short

balls on the bell mixers on the main rotor blade grips.

NOTE: For faster cyclic response in 3D you may want to change the bell/hiller ratio by

moving the A-arms from the washout assembly to the short balls on the inner star of

the swashplate and attach these 106mm rods to the longer balls on the inner star.

Section 14: Connect the electronics

Refer to the instructions for your transmitter and other radio components for the correct

numbering of channels before connecting . Plug in the switch, servos and gyro to the

radio receiver. Wrap the receiver and the battery pack with the proper foam protection

recommended by your radio manufacturer and secure to the top of the battery/receiver

platform at the lower front of the servo tray (use #64 rubber bands).

*Pushrod measurements include ball links from plastic end to plastic end.

Adjust the two aileron control rods to 158mm and attach the two balls on

the aileron servo wheel and to the two aileron bellcranks. Adjust the eleva

tor control rod to 135mm and attach to the elevator servo arm and elevator

bellcrank.

Section 15: Main rotor blade installation

Each rotor blade has 3 holes drilled in the root. Use epoxy to glue the plastic root ends

to the exposed wood pre-cut by the factory (15.1). Use the countersunk screws (15.2) to

secure the root ends to the blades and let the glue dry. Use the 2 M4x30 blade bolts and

M4 locknuts to secure the blades to the blade grips on the main rotor head (15.3). Main

rotor blades should have their leading edge turning clockwise.
