I've talked with Matt at the Ashland Ohio fun fly and recently with Todd B on questions I've had in looking at the kit and manual. Here are some notes that I thought I would share.

-The Clutch Bell is designed to accept the GV-1 magnet. It is press fitted into the clutch but to help secure the magnet add a little CA when installing the magnet. Install the other magnet with the opposite polarity and check display readout on the GV-1 to be sure you are only detecting one magnet.

-To mount and dial indicate the fan and clutch first clean off the collets and fan hub with alcohol. Install and tighten the engine nut and dial indicate the fan hub. Adjust as needed. Others have posted good suggestions on dial indicating so I won't repeat that here. Next install the clutch assembly and without adding locktite tighten the 4x8mm socket head screws. Dial indicate the lower portion of the shaft and if out more than 0.005 inch rotate the clutch assembly 180 degrees and try again. Pick the position that gives you the lowest reading. Locktite and tighten the screws for the clutch after slightly adjusting the position of the clutch assembly to give you the lowest reading at the lower portion of the shaft. Once this is done dial indicate the end of the shaft and if needed physically push the shaft in the right direction. Let the motor sit for a few minutes to see if the shaft moves and dial indicate again.

-Assemble the two parts where the Pin and Pin Clips (106-920 2mm Pin clips) are used before assembling the reminder of the parts. The Pin Clips are easier to install if the other parts are not in the way and if one uses a hammer they won’t risk damaging other parts.

-The Rear Coupler of the torque tube prevents the Tail Input Shaft from moving once secured with the 4 set screws. Push and hold the Tail Bevel Gear on the Input Shaft when setting the 4 set screws in the Rear Coupler. This will take out endplay in the input shaft.

-CA the Inner Bearing Ring for the torque tube bearing supports to the torque tube.

-To install the boom and set the mesh for the 15 Tooth Bevel Gear install the Transmission Output Assembly into the tail boom along with the torque tube and tail gearbox. Install the Main Boom Clamps so the slits are facing down. Then push the boom toward the crown gear while making sure the Transmission Output Assembly is fully seated in the boom. Tighten the top bolts holding the boom clamps first then the lower bolts. Set the mesh by rotating the crown gear and noting any tight spots. Adjust the position the 15 Tooth Bevel Gear (and boom) so there is very little back lash and no back lash if there is a tight spot on the crown gear.

-No need to glue the boom support ends. Just drill and used the button head screws provided.

-CA control rods into tail control rod.

Charles

Cool, when I get mine you can build them for me since you got tons of time to post books here!

Nice post though, really.

Thanks

Why sure Joe. And I'll fly them for a few weeks to make sure the will hold up to your abuse.

carcrasher,

Todd Bennett recommended medium CA on the tail control rod ends. I talked to him just last week on some of these building suggestions. It's consistent with the manual on page A26. I've used medium CA on my tail boom brace ends and they seem to hold just fine, even in crashes.

Can others chime in here to express their opinion? Thanks

thanks chuckie. I wasn't sure if it was up to the task since I've never used medium CA. I've always used epoxy.

Working on it now. I'll see as I'm still waiting for other parts to make it go. Muffler, hex starter, etc.

Tail Pitch Links, 115-322 are directional, as well as all other ball links, so check to make sure larger side is facing the ball before installing the pin. Its easier to snap the links on the balls.

Add grease to the canopy screws into the grommets. Otherwise, the Thumb screws will tear the grommets.

Spray WD40 into the boom before installing the torque tube assembly. Its easier to install and remove the torque and tube.

I'm thinking about this one as I'm using the YS91 which has a thinner motor mount compared to the OS.

Cut down the engine 40mm engine socket screws so when removing the engine I could get at the 4 4x12mm Button Head screws holding the left side motor mount to the side frame. With the YS motor the screws are long and are over the button head screws. With the Hatori installed I cannot get to the heads of the 40mm screws to loosen the motor from the mount.

Make sure you completely tighten the 6 2x8mm socket head screws that hold the Main Gear Hub End Cap to the Main Gear Hub. There should be no gap between these two pieces when the screws are tight. Otherwise the Sprag Outer Race will slip causing the loss of drive from the motor.

When re-installing main shaft to position and tighten the Main Shaft Collar set screws use small screw drivers to push up on the collare, through the two holes in the main frames, as you tighten it to the main shaft. Of course push down on the main shaft at the same time.
