Tail Pipe

The tail pipe supplied is very long requiring 

assembly inside the fuselage shell.

 (Photos 23 

and 24)

The tail pipe can be assembled to the carbon 

bell-mouth with four sheet metal screws or four 

M3 Allen screws if you prefer. Drill the tail pipe 

in four places around 5mm in from the front 

end. Push the carbon bell-mouth fully home and 

check for squareness. Drill through the carbon 

and test fit the screws

. (Photo 25)

Tip mark the position with a coloured pen so 

that the same position can easily be found when 

reassembling inside the fuselage. The tail pipe 

needs to slide forward before being levelled and 

pushed back. This should be done before the 

front installation plate is complete.

The rear former features notches to allow the 

double skinned tube assembly screws to clear as 

they are passed through.

The turbine carbon housing is critical to the 

tail pipe mounting and should be installed 

as designed. The lower section is bolted to 

the carbon bell mouth with three M3 Allen 

screws, before being fixed to the motor rails 

and clamped under the turbine mount. The top 

section features a double skin to lock into the 

bell mouth cone. Some time removing the sharp 

edges from both the bell-mouth and top cover 

plate key slot will allow easier installation in 

the fuselage. Radius the turbine mounting rails 

where the ducting fits to allow the mounting 

ears to seat properly.

 (Photo 26)

Before marking and drilling the three mounting 

holes for the bell-mouth and lower turbine duct 

note where the tail pipe seam runs and orientate 

the tube so that the seam will run along the 

top of the fuselage, this gives a better look on 

the ground. Hold the lower half turbine duct 

in position and mark the split line on the bell-

mouth. This is the highest line and the three 

mounting screw holes need to be below these 

lines. Mark the chosen position and drill three 

holes. Note the lip width on the duct and drill 

the holes half way across this. 

Clamp the duct to the bell-mouth and drill the 

centre hole only. It is critical that the duct to tail 

pipe alignment is correct and the remaining two 

holes should be marked with the tail pipe and 

duct installed.

Slide the tailpipe into position and fix the 

carbon bell-mouth to it. Bolt the centre fixing 

screw to the bell-mouth/duct and slide the tail 

pipe into position. The outer wall should be 

flush with the rear fuselage.

Use the turbine or temporarily fix the duct to 

the turbine rails, ensure the duct lower section is 

pulled out to the rail width.

With everything in position use a sharp scribe or 

sharp pencil to mark to two remaining holes on 

the bell-mouth. Remove the assembly and drill 

the two remaining mounting holes.

Reassemble the tailpipe assembly and prepare 

the turbine with its mount. On a JetCat turbine 

the mounting lugs are facing forwards. Place the 

turbine in position and ensure the distance from 

the rear of the turbine tail cone to the start of the 

stainless inner tail pipe tube is 25-30mm. Centre 

the turbine left to right and drill two diagonal 

mounting holes, 4mm diameter. Install screws 

and check the turbine position looking up the 

tail pipe and from the front. At this time just the 

left right position is critical. When happy drill 

the remaining two holes. Open the holes to 5mm 

and install M4 T nuts.

Bolt the turbine in position and sight the turbine 

position looking up the tail pipe-a torch helps 

here. Small angular changes can be achieved 

by bending the mount slightly. Other makes 

of turbine than JetCat may require packing

(Photo 27)

With the turbine in position trim and clip the 

duct top cover in position, mark the position
