* Do not fully tighten at this time. These bolts will
be secured in Step 5-10.
**Note: For increased tail boom mounting
strength, it is suggested that the 2 halves
of the tail boom carrier be sanded on a
flat surface using 80-100 grit sandpaper.
By removing material from the inside
flange, a more positive tail boom
connection can be achieved.
Slide the Tail Boom through the Tail Boom
Carrier and engage the Tail Drive Belt over the
Front Pulley. Be certain to note the correct
rotation (direction shown below). Set the belt
tension per the directions below.
Secure bolts completly
after inserting the Tail
Boom, making sure that
the Tail Output Shaft is
exactly 90° to the
Main Rotor Shaft.
Rotate the Tail Drive Belt in the direction shown before
installing it onto the front pulley. It is extremely
important to install the belt in the proper direction to
insure correct rotation of the Tail Rotor Blades.
Belt tension should be set so when pressing with your
finger, the sides of the belt do NOT come in contact
with each other. If unsure, it is always better to set the
belt tension too tight than too loose.
