M3x5 Set Screws x 4
Step 61 Landing Gear Spacers
Measure and drill new holes spaced 60mm
apart for the landing struts. Starting with
the rear landing strut, insert two M3x35
socket cap screws with M3x11 flat washers
from the bottom of the plastic strut, through
the landing gear spacers. Apply L242 Blue
threadlock to the exposed threads and thread
into the landing gear frame. Align the front
struts and attach the bolts and spacers. Re-
member to insert and secure the remaining
two M3x5 set screws to secure the front
landing struts to the skids.
Step 62 Tail Transmission
The tail transmission output shaft is
already assembled. We suggest that
you disassemble the components and
carefully bond the bearings in place
using L262 Red threadlock. Starting
with the M5x10 collar positioned on
the middle flat spot on the shaft. Slide
one M5x7x2 spacer and M5x11 ball
bearing on the short end and carefully
bond the bearing. Slide another spacer
and finally the torque tube fitting and
its M4x5 set screw using L242 Blue
threadlock. Slide the gear and position
and bond the front bearing using the
transmission for alignment.
Insert the M3x5 set screw into the bevel
gear but leave this loose until after the
transmission has been installed and the
tail gear mesh is set.

correct direction is to have the struts
