Chapter 8, Installation Of Swashplate Servos BAG 8 INSTALLATION OF SWASHPLATE SERVOS The linkage ball must be positioned between 17-19 mm out on the servo arm (Figure 1), recommended servo arm SAB p/n [HA050/HA051]. The 120° placement of the servos inside Goblin means the arms are difficult to access. For this reason it is advisable to ensure alignment of the servo arms (and sub trim set) before installation of the servos in the model. Proceed with installation following the instructions below.
Chapter 8, Installation Of Swashplate Servos BAG 8 The wire for the front servo must be positioned here Head HPS Version Preliminary Setup Adjust the linkage as shown. The linkage Rod A has thead right/left. Turning, you can change the tracking without disconnecting the plastic ball link. Linkage Rod A Assembly ... x2 Linkade Rod A Aseembly 65mm Approx 76.
Chapter 9, Installation Of The Motor TRANSMISSION SETUP It is important to choose the right reduction ratio to maximize efficiency based on your required flight performance. The Goblin has many possible reduction ratios at your disposal. It is possible to optimize any motor and battery combination. It is recommended to use wiring and connectors appropriate for the currents generated in a helicopter of this class.
Chapter 9, Installation Of The Motor MOTOR BELT TENSION *Assemble the motor and pinion to its mounting plate. *Fit the motor assembly into position. *Compress the springs by pushing the motor toward the main shaft. *At maximum compression, temporarily tighten one of the slide screws. *With the minimum centre distance it is easy to install the belt. First put the belt on the motor pinion. *Then put the belt around the big pulley. *Rotate the motor several times by hand.
Chapter 10, Installation Of The ESC, FBL and RX DE-BURR THE SIDE FRAMES We recommend de-burring the edges of the carbon parts in areas where electrical wires run. ESC INSTALLATION The speed controller (ESC) is installed in the front of the helicopter. Figure 1: Show the ESC support. You can use hole or slot in according with your ESC. Figure 2: Show the installation of the ESC. Figure 3: You can see the wiring for connecting the ESC to the central unit.

Chapter 13,Installation Of the Boom and Canopy TAIL BELT TENSION *Check the proper assembly of the tail boom. *Check that the aluminum part of the tube is against the M3 stop screw. *Loosen the tail group by loosening the 4 M3 screws. *Install the belt onto the pulley, taking care to respect the direction of rotation (figure 1). *Rotate the tail drive several times by hand. *Load the spring by a rotation of 270° the tensioning arm (clockwise).
Chapter 14, Battery BAG 18 BATTERIES Note: Using sandpaper, sand the slot where you insert the battery strap. This helps increase the life of the strap. The battery tray system in the Goblin 700 is simple, but very effective. The battery should be attached to the tray (Part H0149) with heat shrink, tape or velcro. You can optionally use the battery protection tray (Part H0151) see Fig. 1, 2.
Chapter 15, In Flight BAG 19 OPERATIONS BEFORE FLIGHT *Set up the remote control and the flybarless system with utmost care. *It is advisable to test the correct settings of the remote and flybarless system without main blades or tail blades fitted. *Check that all wiring is isolated from the carbon/aluminum parts. It is good practice to protect them at the points where they are at most risk. *Be sure of the gear ratio, verifying carefully the motor pulley in use.
Chapter 16, Maintenance ABOUT HPS The HPS head allows for a very broad range of dampening setups. The dampers are composed of an O-ring and a technopolymer damper that defines the maximum possible movement of the spindle.Using different dampers we can get different responses of the model. A = Soft for smooth response. B = Medium. C = Firm for direct and precise response. In the kit, there is the damper H0426-B. (Other Setting >>p/n H0426-S ).
