12. Installing the Servos
The installation of a servo (1) always depends on the particular
model used. Detailed information on this can be found in the
construction documents of the model.
Generally, however,tryscrewinginthe servos in avibration-
dampened manner. This is why rubber bushings (2) with metal
sleeves (3) are usually included with the servos.
When servos are obstructed, the servos cannot assume the re-
quired positions. This causes higher power consumption and the
model cannot be controlled properly. The linkages must work as
smoothly as possible without having any play in the bearings or
deections.
Before installing the servo lever, take the transmitter and then the receiver into operation and check the trim at the
remote control transmitter for correct middle position (see following chapter).
Then always mount the servo stick at a 90° angle to the linkage
rods(seegure9,sketchA).
Theservoleverisatanangletothelinkagerod(seegure9,
sketch B), the control paths of the two control directions will be
unequal.
A slight mechanical inclination due to interlock of the servo le-
vers may be corrected with the trim later.
13. Setting the Trim
The trim mostly serves to correct the slight inclination of the servo levers due to the interlock and the connected
irregularcontrolmovements.Additionally,thereistheoptionofpreciselyadjustingthemodelinoperation,e.g.ifitis
not running straight although the control wheel is in the middle position.
Thenthelinkagerodsmustbeadjustedsothatthetrimhasitsoriginalvalue(90°-rangebetweenservoleverand
linkage) again and the model still runs straight.
