INSTALLING THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER.
1) Using a ruler and a pen, locate the
centerline of the horizontal stabilizer, at the trail-
ing edge, and place a mark. Use a triangle
and extend this mark, from back to front,
across the top of the stabilizer. Also extend
this mark down the back of the trailing edge of
the stabilizer.
Because of the size of the cowl, it may be nec-
essary to use a needle valve extension for the
high speed needle valve. Make this out of suf-
ficient length 1mm wire and install it into the
end of the needle valve. Secure the wire in
place by tightening the set screw in the side of
the needle valve.
Trim and cut.
Machine screw M2x6mm.
2) While keeping the back edge of the
cowl flush with the marks, align the front of
the cowl with the crankshaft of the motor. The
front of the cowl should be positioned so the
crankshaft is in nearly the middle of the cowl
opening. Use the spinner backplate as a guide.
Hold the cowl firmly in place using pieces of
masking tape.
INSTALLING THE SPINNER.
Install the spinner backplate, propeller and
spinner cone.
The propeller should not touch any part
of the spinner cone. If it does, use a
sharp modeling knife and carefully trim away
the spinner cone where the propeller comes
in contact with it.
