The gear door cypinders (we
recommend Robart #165)
are mounted to the front gear
former. Determine the
correct position of the
mounting holes, and predrill
these holes with a small
drill bit.
to dertermine the correct
position, take the cylinder
and extend it to full. Fix the
control horn with a drop of
CA to the gear door.
After you set the angle of
the gear door to 90 deg.
when opened, you got the
right point where to fix the
cylinder.
Mount the cylinders for
both gear doors with 2 sheet
metal screws each.
To adjust the correct closing
block position use a 4mm
collar on the piston rod.
Make sure not to tighten the
screw to much when testing
to find the correct position to
not damage the piston.
The nose gear steering servo
gets mounted in the front edge
corner of the nose gear
compartment. The cutout in
the former is already prepared.
