The carbon tail rotor blades will not fit the tail rotor
grips without trimming the ends. Attach the two
rotor blades together and grind 3-4mm off the end
of both blades as shown.

Step 73 Mount Tail Blades
Slide one M3x18 special socket cap screw from the inside of the tail rotor
grip and position the first M3x10x1.5 spacer, insert the tail blade, another
spacer and secure using one M3 locknut from the molded recess on the out-
side.When correctly installed, the leading edge of the tail rotor blades will
rotate into the down wash from the main rotor blades.

Tail blade tension should be set tight enough that the rotor blade
will stay straight on its own, but will pivot easily when the blade
tip is moved.
After flying the model, if a vibration is noticed on the horizontal
fin, the complete tail rotor assembly can be removed with the hub
and further balanced using a High Point balancer.
Step 74 Tail Boom Transmission Mount
Insert four M3x12 socket cap screws through
the tail transmission mount over the tail boom
(make sure the tail rotor is on the right side
when viewed from behind) and secure with
four M3 locknuts inserted into the molded
recesses. Look at the threaded hex spacers and
make sure that they are flush on both sides of
the mount. Slide the completed tail boom as-
sembly, aligning the three holes on the upper
side frames and roughly position the tail bevel
gear on the inner gear. Insert two M3x10 flat
head cap screws and four M3x8 socket caps
screws using L242 Blue threadlock. Do not
overtighten these bolts!
