Check the Tip Spacing-
Lay the assembled rotor blade on a flat surface. Using a tape measure or long
steel rule, ensure that the spacing between each tip is equal to within a tolerance of +/-1.5mm. Adjust the
blades as required. Output performance may suffer if the blades are not spaced equally.
Fit the Rotor Blade Assembly-
The assembled and balanced rotor blades can now be fitted to the
Chi-
nook 200
chassis. This is done by placing the rotor hub plate against the bearing house on the turbine. In
the hardware kit you will find 4 ea 5mm X 12 hex head screws. NOTE, you will have 3 ea 5mm X 14 hex
head screws that are LONGER for use on the Nose cone. Ensure that all 4 screws are securely tightened
and that the rotor blades are mounted with the flat side of the blades facing forward.
