STEP 61  Tail Gearbox Assembly

Position the output gear assembly into the right gear box half (insure the 2 bevel gears are meshed properly and the ball
bearings are fully seated in their recesses) and liberally greased the gears before closing the gear box. Position the gear
box halves over the holes in the end of the tail boom and secure with one M3x10 Socket Screw and M3 Locknut at the
end of the gear box and one M3x16 Socket Screw and M3 Locknut at the center-top location. Attach the tail gear box
mount for the tail fins using one M3x25 Socket Screw inserted through the upper-center hole in the mount, slide two
M3x8 Flat Washers and secure with one M3 Locknut on the other side of the gear box. Attach the front of the mount
with one M3x25 Socket Screw inserted through the mount and secure with one M3 Locknut. Notice that the tail pitch
bellcrank is positioned on the top of the tail gearbox that matches up with the tail pushrod as it exits the fiberglass tail
boom. Also not the tail rotor is mounted on the left side of the helicopter. In this configuration, as the rudder pushrod is
moved forward the helicopter’s nose will turn left to the left.

STEP 62  Foam Inside Support

The fiberglass tail boom needs to be positioned cor-
rectly to avoid the tail boom side plates from pressing
against the inside surface of the fiberglass tail boom.
This support is provided by the foam insert. The insert
needs to be modified slightly, by cutting the dotted
section away using an exacto knife.
