Figure 2.2 below shows the complete TRMS/MIMO assembly.

Note:
The MIMO has two degrees of freedom - the rotors can rotate about a vertical
and a horizontal axis. When not in use, or when setting control parameters,
either or both axes of rotation can be locked by means of the two locking
screws shown on the diagram above.
When the horizontal axis locking screw is released, the heavier weight of the
vertical rotor should cause the rotor assembly arm to rest at an angle of
approximately 28 degrees to the horizontal. This is correct and is required for
the proper functioning of the system, as then power must be applied to the
vertical motor in order to raise the arm to a horizontal position.
The distance between the plastic vertical rotor guard and the rotor arm boss
should be approximately 80 mm.
This angle ~ 28°
