7) Fit the nose cone – Do not over-tighten nose cone bolts as the nose cone is a plastic part
and is liable to crack if over-tightened.
The nose cone can now be fitted to the rotor. This is done by aligning the mounting slots of
the nose cone with the corresponding 'barbs' on the rotor blades. Once the nose cone is
fitted correctly over the blades and runs concentrically, fix it in position using Qty 3 M8 x
12lg Cap head screws using Loctite. The screws enter through the mount holes in the nose
cone and align with the 3 tapped holes in the hub plate. Ensure that the nose cone is
secure and true before finally tightening the fixings.
