CO0LING FAN/HUB INSTALLATION
Note: It will be necessary to shorten the crankshaft of the
engine to allow clearance. Test fit the fan assembly to
determine the correct amount of the crankshaft to be
removed. On the Thunder Tiger Pro .46, MDS .48,
and most other .46–.50-size heli engines, it will be
necessary to remove 1/2" from the tip of the Crankshaft.
*It is recommended that a piston locking tool be used to
properly secure the cooling fan assembly to the engine.
