Note
: There is minimal airflow through the center of the
fuselage for ESC cooling. For this reason we have gone
to a larger amperage ESC than is really necessary. We
use the E-flite 40-amp ESC and have had no issues with
this setup in any of our test models.
1. Slide the impeller shaft onto the impeller.
2. Use the impeller nut to secure the impeller shaft to
the impeller. Do not tighten at this time.
3. Use two 2mm x 6mm machine screws and a #1
Phillips screwdriver to secure the motor in the fan
housing. Route the motor leads to the outside of the
shroud as shown.
Note
: You might have to grind a small hole in the shroud
to accommodate your motor leads.
