ELECTRIC MOTOR INSTALATION
Before installing the electric motor box we
recommend running medium or thick cyano
around the inside of the motor box to ensure
good security. The holes are pre-drilled for our
west 590kv motor and mount so you may have to
adjust if you are using something else. Using
the bolts provided in the motor pack and capture
nuts pre installed install the electric motor box
and motor to the fire wall.
For added security you can glue the electric
motor box to the fire wall as well as bolting it.
Secure your speed controller to the under side of the
box work using velcro and tie-wraps. A
small hole will need to be made from the speed
control tray to the tank bay to pass the cables up.
Cooling requirements
We recommend you cut the rear cheeks out
for cooling and cut a hole at the front for the
motor cooling duct
Insert the pre-moulded scoop inside the cowling
to re-direct airflow onto the motor.
We recommend you open 2 of the air outlets at the bottom
of the fuselage.
Attach the supplied cooling ducts to the servo
position points on the motor box for battery cooling.
Please note when putting cowling over ducts do so
with care and be sure not to crack gell coat on cowling !!
