The cabin is supplied in the kit almost completely finished, with decals already applied; even the
fixing holes are already drilled. Press the four rubber grommets into these holes, so that the
cabin can be fitted over the support pillars on the chassis. Cut out the glazing area along the in-
ner moulded-in line; the glazing itself should be cut to final size along the marked line, so that it
can be fixed to the recessed flange of the cabin using the small 2.2 x 4 mm self-tapping screws.
The carbon fibre frame supplied can be fixed to the right-hand chassis side frame, opposite the
tail rotor servo, using two M2.5 x 12 countersunk screws, plastic spacer sleeves and self-locking
nuts; its purpose is to support the speed controller, unless the unit is installed elsewhere.
Install the receiver in the chassis at a suitable position, bearing in mind the recommendations in
the radio control system instructions; possible locations are the front lower chassis floor or the
area at the front below the battery holder. If necessary for your particular receiver, another option
is to mount it on the small platform above the tail boom holder instead of the gyro system; in this
case the gyro can be installed on the lower platform in the chassis.
The swashplate linkage takes the form of a symmetrical three-point arrangement with two roll /
collective pitch servos at the sides, and one pitch axis / collective pitch servo at the rear. The
swashplate mixer in the transmitter must therefore be set up or selected accordingly: “3 servos
(2 roll)”.
For current Graupner radio control systems the servos, gyro system and speed controller should
be connected as detailed in the following list:
Channel 1: right swashplate servo
roll / pitch-axis / collective pitch
Channel 2: left swashplate servo
roll / pitch-axis / collective pitch
Channel 3: rear swashplate servo
pitch-axis / collective pitch
Channel 4: gyro system (tail rotor input)
tail rotor control
Channel 5: (free)
-
Channel 6: speed controller / power supply
motor power and BEC
Channel 7: gyro system (gain / mode)
gyro gain / mode setting
Please note that you may need to reverse individual directions of
servo
rotation
. It may also be
necessary to reverse the collective pitch
function
in the swashplate mixer; this is accomplished
by setting a value of -61%.
If the receiving system draws energy from the flight battery via the BEC system, the flight pack
must be connected to the speed controller in order to check the radio control system
When you do this, please take the greatest care to avoid the motor bursting into life unex-
pectedly, as this involves a considerable risk of property damage or injury.
