Step 1: Nose retract preparation
The nose retract mount consists out of the
parts shown above.
In addition to the ply formers included in
the kit please cut two 7cm long pieces from
the airtube included in the HET-RC Mini
Air Retract System set.
Dry fit the ply parts together as shown in
the picture above. Take care that the retract
mounting plates are installed in the correct
direction. The 2 airtubes are inserted into
the 2 holes at the back of the main retract
former and will form an arc from above the
retract mounting plate to the bottom on
each side. Roughen the airtube with
sandpaper and glue all parts with 30min
epoxy.
Once the glue has dried, test fit the nose
retract unit and mark the mounting hole
positions. Remove the retract unit and drill
4x 2mm holes at the marked positions.
Turn the mount around and test fit the nose
gear steering servo as shown above. The
servo arm is shown in its center position.
Mark the servo mounting hole locations,
remove the servo and drill the holes to the
size required for your servo (e.g. HS-65HB
1mm hole).
