Roughen the flybar with abrasive paper at the point where the control bridge 4618.37 will be
clamped, and screw the control bridge in place, applying thread-lock fluid between flybar and
control frame; this prevents the flybar rotating in the control bridge during violent aerobatic
manoeuvres. Slide the ball collets 4607.36 onto both ends of the flybar and position them butting
up against the control bridge. The ball collets are secured with M3 x 3 grubscrews, but be sure
to apply thread-lock fluid to the threaded holes in the collets before fitting the screws. Press the
double ball-links 4607.35 onto the ball collets as shown.
Apply thread-lock fluid to the holes in the paddles 4448.134, and screw them onto the ends of
the flybar to a depth of exactly 15 mm. Set the paddles exactly parallel to each other and to the
control bridge.
Press an M3 nut into the recess in one side of the rotor head centre piece. Apply thread-lock
fluid to the two guide pins 4450.44 for the collective pitch compensator and push them into
place.
Make up two straight and two cranked pushrods as shown in the drawing.
