s) Mounting the Motor Hood
Due to the diversity of possibilities (combustion drive, electrical drive, large or small engines, etc.), these operating instructions cannot provide any
specific information on adjustment of the motor hood and the transfer to the spinner. Therefore, the motor hood from the kit must be adjusted to the
individual situation at your own discretion. Independently of using a combustion or electrical drive, ensure the right cooling of your drive.
The motor hood is attended to the fuselage with four screws M3 x 12
mm. Two screws are at the top in the area of the canopy (figure 6, item
1), and two at the bottom of the fuselage (also see figure 6, item 2). The
bottom holes need to be drilled.
Practical advice:
To drill the perfectly matching holes for the bottom screws of the motor
hood, us adhesive tape to glue two paper strips to the fuselage with the
motor hood removed. The paper strips must be attached so that you
can mark the thread inserts at the motor carrier on the paper strips.
Then fold the paper strips back, put on the motor hood and mark the
holes as shown on the paper strips on the motor hood.
t) Mounting the Receiver, Receiver and Ignition Current Supply
Due to the system (combustion or electrical) and the components used,
we cannot provide specific information on installation here either.
Figures 4 and 10 show one of many options for the installation of servos,
receivers (figure 4, item 2) and receiver- and ignition power supply (figure
10, item 1) or, e.g., in the front fuselage boat in the electrical version.
Test several options with the objective of reaching the centre of gravity
without trimming weight if possible by suitable installation. However,
the batteries must be secured in the fuselage with suitable media (e.g.
cable ties).
u) Installing the Canopy
The canopy is held by two guide pins at the front and screwed on with two screws M3 x 20 mm at the side.
