Trust pipe installation

Drill 2 holes 3mm intone flange of the 
aluminium brackets to mount to the wood 
board and 1 hole 3mm into the other 
flange to mount against the carbon entry 
cone. Cut the edge of one flange as seen 
on the photos. 

Trial assembly everything and mark the 
end of the funnel and the hole positions to 
the wood construction. Use a sharp and 
red glowing 3mm rod to drill (resp. “burn”) 
the holes on the outer side of the fuselage. 

Use 3mm screws with stop nuts for the 
outside brackets. For the inside brackets 
you get along with sheet metal screws. 

Mount the brackets with M3 bolts, stop 
nuts and sheet metal screws to the wood 
boards and to the carbon entry cones of 
the inserted thrust tubes.
