7. Trial fit the torque tube in place along the top of the tail boom. Slide the front end of the
torque tube fitting into the drive cog on the tail shaft output shaft on the mechanics. Slide the
back end of the torque tube into the tail gear box fitting and mount the tail gear box with three
(3 mm) bolts.
Align all the Bearing supports with Cross members. Carefully glue bearing supports with High
Grade 2 part slow epoxy (like Aeropoxy), making sure there is No Binding and the torque tube
runs smooth and free.
The Rubber “O” Rings on the couplers are for Adjusting Tension. The “O” rings can be added/
removed to adjust the end tension on the torque tube. There should be no compression on the
tube.
Hint:
You will find it easier to get the torque tube straight and true if you glue the front,
middle, and end support bearings first, let them set and then glue the remaining bearing blocks.
Use a straight edge along side the torque tube to check for correct alignment of the tube.
