INTRODUCTION

The Wait is Over!

Congratulations on your purchase of the new JR

Vigor CS helicopter kit. The Vigor CS, designed by 2-time World Champion and 12-time U.S. Nationals Champion Curtis Youngblood, in conjunction with JR engineers, has been in development for nearly 4 years and thousands of test flights, to bring you a model that sets the new standard for others to be judged.

The Vigor CS was designed by Curtis with rigidity, durability, and simplicity in mind. The Vigor CS’s unique main frame design utilizes two straight carbon fiber frame plates and achieves its unmatched strength and rigidity through the use of internal “I” beam supports, rather than the engine. This results in a very simple, yet highly rigid frame that eliminates any unwanted loads from being applied to the engine during flight. In addition to the Vigor CS’s unique frame, the cooling system has also been designed from the ground up by Curtis through countless hours of engine cooling fan efficiency testing. The end result is a cooling system that provides double the airflow of a conventional cooling system, with no increase in power consumption. This system will allow the engine to run more consistently, and at a more consistent temperature.

Low Parts Count Means Quick Assembly

You will find that your Vigor CS will assemble very quickly due to its wellthought-out/straight-forward design, low parts count, and preassembled main rotor head, washout unit, and tail pitch slider assemblies. The building time for the Vigor CS usually takes only 10–12 hours from start to finish.

CCPM Control System

Curtis and the JR engineers have taken the CCPM one step further. The Vigor CS can be set up with the normal 120-degree CCPM system that is supported in most of today's modern computer helicopter radio systems. Curtis has devised a new CCPM configuration. CCPM 140 places the ball links on the swashplate 140º back from the forward ball, then the rear balls are extended, placing them the same for to aft distance from the center of the mainshaft as the front ball. The main advantage is that all three servos going to the swashplate now have the same throw. With conventional 120 CCPM, the throws to the forward servos must be reduced with radio programming by 50%. This causes the longer-throwing servos to lag behind the shorter-throwing servo during quick cyclic inputs.

Team Tips

Throughout the sections of this instruction manual, you will find dozens of “Team Tips.” These tips have been provided by Team JR’s Curtis Youngblood and Len Sabato to guide you through the assembly of your Vigor CS with helpful tips and suggestions that will help you get the most from your new JR Vigor CS from the first flight.

PREASSEMBLY INFORMATION

When first opening your Vigor CS kit, you will notice that all of the parts are packaged and numbered to coordinate with the assembly step numbers of this instruction manual.

All small hardware (nuts, bolts, washers, etc.) for each step are separated and packaged separately within the main parts bags. When beginning a section, you will need to open only the bag with the corresponding number to the section you are going to start. It is suggested that you place all of the hardware in an open container (e.g., coffee can) during assembly so as not to lose any of the small parts. It may also be helpful to familiarize yourself with the various sizes of screws, bolts, nuts, etc., as illustrated in the appropriate assembly section before you begin assembly. At the end of each assembly, in most cases, there should be no parts remaining.

NOTE: Your kit also includes JR red and green threadlock. Unlike conventional U.S.-made threadlock, JR red is actually the U.S. equivalent of blue. JR green is actually the equivalent of U.S. red.

Great care has been taken in filling the bags with the correct quantity of parts and hardware for each section. However, occasionally mistakes do happen. In the event that you find a parts shortage or are in need of technical assistance, please contact your local JR Heli Division parts dealer or contact the Horizon Service Center directly.

Once the engine has been installed, adjust the gear mesh of the main pinion so that a slight amount of “backlash” is achieved. One method for achieving the proper clearance is to insert a folded piece of paper between the two gears, press the gears together, then secure the bearing blocks in place. When setting the gear mesh, make sure that the pinion gear remains parallel to the main drive gear teeth, as it is possible to alter the pinion gear angle during adjustment. If you find difficulty achieving proper alignment of the pinion, it is also possible to loosen the six bolts that attach the engine mount to the main frame. This will allow the engine/ mount to be repositioned to achieve the proper gear mesh. Once the desired gear mesh has been achieved, tighten all loose bolts from Step 2-1. Please remember to use thread-lock on the bolts securing the upper start shaft pinion block. Please also remember to apply threadlock and tighten the two 3 x 14 mm socket head bolts that connect bearing block “A” to bearing block “B” . (see Step 1-1 for details).

Bolt Tightening Order:

1. Motor Mount to Main Frame Plates

2. Start Shaft Bearing Block/Bearing Blocks “A” & “B”

3. Crossmember “A”, and front Crossmember “B” to Main Frame Plates

TEAM TIP: The JR ball links are designed with little ridges around the lip of the link. These ridges, in conjunction with the JR ball link sizing tool, are there to help you custom fit the link to the ball. If the link fits on the ball too tight, you can use the reaming tool to enlarge the link hole size. If the link fits too loose on the ball, you can push in on the ridges on the link with a small pair of pliers. This reduces the size of the link hole and makes the link fit tighter. JR links are some of the best links available. It is important to note that very little force is needed on the ridges to resize the link. Using pliers on any other part of the link can cause the links to break.

TEAM TIP: After many flights there can be excess play between the ball and link. It is usually the ball that has actually worn. So when replacing parts, you will actually get the best results by replacing the balls.

Caution:

Please note that all universal links should be adjusted so that when attached to the control ball, the words “JR PROPO” are to the outside.

Note: The seesaw mixing arms included

with the Vigor are designed to offer a pitch range of approx. 20° (+11°, -9°). If additional pitch range is required, it is possible to replace these arms with part #JRP960178B. These arms will provide a total pitch range of 23° (+13°, -10°). Please note that these optional mixing arms will also increase the “Bell” movement of the Rotor Head, which will alter the flight characteristics slightly. Also note that if these optional arms are used, the overall pitch and travel values may vary from that shown in the data sheets included in this manual (page 53).

Note:

BEVEL GEAR MESH ADJUSTMENT

Before tightening of the 4 tail boom mounting clamp bolts, it will be necessary to set the bevel gear to bevel pinion gear mesh by raising or lowering the tail boom assembly.

To set the proper mesh, insert 1 thickness of paper (the same thickness as the pages of this manual) between the 2 bevel gears.

Next, push the tail boom assembly down so that there is no gear backlash with the paper in place.

Tighten the 4 tail boom mounting bolts. Next, remove the thickness of paper and check the gear mesh. There should be a very slight amount of backlash. If the backlash seems too much, repeat this procedure using thinner paper. If backlash can't be detected, double the paper thickness and retest.

The following preparations are suggested for use with JR

radio systems. However, these procedures are applicable to most other brand radio systems. These suggested adjustments are necessary to insure correct installation and attachment of the control linkages and servo horns.

TRANSMITTER PREPARATION

RECEIVER FLIGHT PACK PREPARATION

SERVO HORN INSTALLATION SUGGESTIONS

1. Set all trim levers, knobs, and switches to the neutral or zero positions.

2. Turn the transmitter power switch to the On position.

3. Reset all functions and input values of your computer radio system to the factory preset position.

4. Move the throttle/collective control stick to the center or half stick position. Next slide the throttle trim lever to the full low position.

1. With the transmitter still on, slide the receiver switch to its On position. All servos should move to the neutral or center position.

2. Check that all servos operate with the appropriate control stick.

3. Rest the throttle stick to the center position, making sure the throttle trim is still at low.

4. Turn off the receiver switch first, followed by the transmitter.

For proper operation, it’s important that the servo horns are positioned on the servos in the “exact” neutral position. Although most computer radio systems offer a sub-trim feature, it is suggested that the servo horns be manipulated on the servos to achieve the “exact” neutral settings.

Since the servo output spline on a JR system has an odd number of teeth (21), it’s possible to reposition the servo arm on the servo at 90° intervals to achieve the proper neutral attachment of the servo horn.

Once the correct arm of the servo horn has been established, it’s suggested that the remaining unused arms be removed from the servo horn as shown in the installation diagrams in the following section.

It will also be necessary to enlarge the appropriate hole in the servo horn slightly to allow correct installation of the steel control balls to the servo horn.

120/140 3-SERVO CCPM SWASHPLATE MIXING

The JR®120°/140° CCPM or Cyclic/Collective Pitch Mixing system offers the user a control system that can accomplish the

same control inputs as a one servo standard system, but with increased precision and reduced complexity.

As with the one servo system, the JR CCPM system utilizes three servos for the three main controls: aileron (roll), elevator(pitch), and collective. The CCPM lower swashplate ring is designed with only three control balls, spaced at 120° or 140° from each other, hence the 120°/140° CCPM designation. Although the control balls are not at 90° as in the standard system, the aileron (roll) axis is still parallel to the main mechanics of the helicopter, and the elevator (pitch) axis still functions at 90° to the mechanics as does the one servo system. Please refer to the diagram below for clarification.

The main difference in the way that these two systems operate is that unlike the one servo system where the three servos work completely independent from each other, the CCPM systems work as a team to achieve the same control inputs. For example, if an aileron (roll) input is given, two servos work together to move the swashplate left and right. If an elevator (pitch) input is given, all three servos work together to move the swashplate fore and aft. For collective, it’s also the strength of three servos that will move the swashplate up and down the main rotor shaft. With two or three servos working at the same time during any given control input, servo torque is maximized and servo centering is also increased. In addition to these benefits, CCPM achieves these control responses without the need for complex mechanical mixing systems that require many more control rods and parts to set up.

This amazing CCPM control is achieved through special CCPM swashplate mixing that is preprogrammed into many of today’s popular radio systems. Since the 120° and 140° CCPM function is preprogrammed, CCPM is no more complicated to set up than a conventional one servo standard system. When you factor in the reduced parts count and easy programming, CCPM is actually easier to set up and operate than many conventional systems.

For JR radio owners, please refer to the radio information contained at the front of this manual or on the following pages to determine if your radio system has the CCPM function. For other brands of radio systems, please contact the radio manufacturer for CCPM information. Please note that it is not possible to program a non-CCPM radio system for CCPM operation.

The JR 120°/140° three servo CCPM relies on the radio’s special CCPM swashplate mixing, rather than a conventional mechanical mixer that is utilized to achieve the same results. The radio’s 120° or 140° 3-servo CCPM function automatically mixes the three servos to provide the correct mixing inputs for aileron (roll), elevator (pitch), and collective. The following is an example of how each control input affects the servo’s movement.

1. COLLECTIVE

When a collective pitch input is given, all three servos (A, B, and C) move together in the same direction, at equal amounts, to raise and lower the swashplate while keeping the swashplate level. During this function, all three servos travel at the same value (100%) so that the swashplate can remain level during the increase and decrease in pitch. As mentioned, this mixing of the three servos is achieved through the radio’s CCPM program.

2. ELEVATOR (PITCH)

When an elevator input is given, all three servos must move to tilt the swashplate fore and aft, but their directions vary. The two front servos (B and C) move together in the same direction, while the top servo (A) moves in the opposite direction. For example, when a down elevator (forward cyclic) command is given, the two front servos (B and C) will move rearward, while the top servo (A) moves foreward so that the swashplate will tilt forward. During this function with 120° CCPM, the top servo (A) travels at 100%, while the two front servos (B and C) travel at 50% (1/2the travel value) of the top servo. This difference in travel is necessary due to the fact that the position of the 120 CCPM rear control ball is two times the distance of the two front control ball position as measured from the center of the swashplate. With 140° CCPM selected, all three servos travel at 100%, eliminating elevator trim changes during quick collective inputs. This mixing of the three servos is also achieved through the 140° CCPM program only found in JR 10X systems.

3. AILERON (ROLL)

When an aileron (roll) input is given, the two front servos (B and C) travel in opposite directions, while the top servo (A) remains motionless. For example, when a right aileron (roll) command is given, the left front servo (C) will move forward, while the right front servo (B) will move backward to tilt the swashplate to the right. As mentioned, the top servo (A) will remain motionless. The travel value for each of the two rear servos is 100%.

Page 44

IMPORTANT CCPM PROGRAMMING DOS AND DON’TS

It is extremely important that the travel adjustment values for the three CCPM servos (aileron, elevator, Aux 1) be initially set to exactly the same travel value. If the travel value is not similar for each servo, it will create unwanted pitching and rolling of the swashplate during collective pitch inputs. The travel values for each servo will be adjusted in Step 7.8 and Step 7.9 to remove any minor pitch and roll coupling during pitch, roll, and collective movements.

Minor travel value adjustments are necessary due to slight variations in servo travel and centering. Although the three servos may appear to travel at the same amounts in each direction, in reality the servos can vary slightly. This variation is more common in analog type servos. If JR’s new digital servos are used, the travel adjustment values will generally not need to be altered.

A. TRAVEL ADJUST

It is also extremely important that the servo reversing directions for the three CCPM servos (aileron, elevator, Aux 1) be set as indicated in the upcoming radio programming steps. If one or more servos is not set to the correct direction, the CCPM function will be out of synchronization, and the three control functions (Aileron, Elevator, Collective) will not move properly. In the event that a control surface is working in the wrong direction, the control function can only be reversed by changing the desired CCPM value for that function from a (+) to a (-) value or vise versa.

Example: If when you increase the collective pitch, the pitch of the main blades actually decreases, it will be necessary to access the CCPM function and change the travel value for this function from (+) to (-), or (-) to (+). This will reverse the direction of the collective pitch function without affecting the movement of the aileron and elevator functions.

The JR®120°/140° CCPM system requires the use of three servos to operate, aileron, elevator, and Aux 1(Pitch). The labeling of these servos can become quite confusing because with the CCPM function; the three servos no longer work independently, but rather as a team, and their functions are now combined. For this reason, we will refer to the three servos in the following manner:

Elevator Servo: We will refer to this servo as the “Top” servo. The channel number for this servo when using a JR radio is CH3.

Aileron Servo: We will refer to this servo as the “Right Front” servo. The channel number for this servo when using a JR radio is CH2.

Aux 1 (Pitch) Servo: We will refer to this servo as the “Left Front” servo. The channel number for this servo when using a JR radio is CH6.

Please refer to the CCPM connections chart below for clarification. For non-JR radios, please consult your radio instructions for proper connection.

Threadlock

JR HD Servo Wheels or equivalent will be required for this step (JRPA216, not included) Before trimming the servo horns as shown, it is first suggested that these horns be test fit to the servo to achieve the

correct positioning. JR servos utilize a 21 spline output shaft, which allows the position of the servo arm to be varied when rotated at 180-degree intervals. To test fit the servo horns, turn the radio system on, and set the collective stick to the center position. Next, test fit the servo arms at 180-degree intervals to find the direction that will allow the horn to be positioned as close to the vertical position (90 degrees from the servo case) as possible as shown in the diagram. This will reduce the amount of sub trim needed to bring the servo horns to the exact 90-degree position as shown. Once the position for each horn has been established, mark the servo arms for trimming, while also noting the servo that they have been fitted to (A, B, or C). Trim the servo horns as shown and attach the steel control balls in the desired hole locations. Reattach the servo horns to the servos, remembering to secure the horns to the servos using the servo horn screw. Final sub trimming of the servos will be performed in the proceeding Section 7-2.

To achieve the correct position of the throttle/servo arm, it may be necessary to re-position the throttle arm on the carburetor. It may also be necessary to adjust the length of the throttle linkage slightly to achieve full open and closed positions of the carburetor.

Throttle Travel Adjustment (Initial Setup Only) 10 Series & Other Systems

It is also possible to increase/reduce the travel of the throttle servo through the travel adjust function found in most computer radio systems. If this function is used, make sure the values for the high and low positions remain equal (same value for high/low). If these values are not equal, it will create a differential, or uneven movement of the throttle, making rotor rpm adjustment and fine tuning more difficult.

Throttle Travel Adjustment (Full 3D Setup) with 8103 Systems

When setting up your throttle linkage for cyclic to throttle mixing with many radio systems, it will be necessary to make any adjustment in the throttle travel limits by mechanical means only. Move the control linkage in or out on the servo/throttle arms until the correct barrel travel is achieved. Please note that it is very important the ATV (travel volume) for both the high and low throttle setting remain at their maximum values (150%) to prevent over-travel and binding of the throttle linkage when cyclic to throttle mixing is used.

For initial cyclic to throttle mixing value information, please refer to the JR 8103 and PCM10X series data sheets located on pages 73-77 of this manual. Please note that the values and mixing channels shown are universal to most radio systems currently available.

Cyclic to Throttle Channel and Mixing Values (most systems)

*Numbers shown correspond with the correct JR channel numbers

Mixing Value Adjustment

Please note that it will be necessary to determine if the desired mixing values need to be a + or - value based on servo direction, etc.

To verify the proper direction, move the control surface in each direction while watching the throttle arm. Throttle should increase each time a control surface input is given. Adjust the + or - value as necessary until the proper mix is achieved.

Also check to confirm that the throttle travel is correct and is not causing a bind in the control linkage after the cyclic mixing has been added.

*To avoid differential throttle travel, make certain both the throttle arm and the servo horn are positioned as shown in the above diagrams.

Adjust the control rods as needed until the swashplate is level with all servos in their neutral (90°) position.

Left Servo (C)

CHECKING THE SWASHPLATE FOR LEVEL

Check to insure the swashplate is level on the fore-aft axis.

Top Servo (A)

Reconfirm that the elevator arm is at 90°.

After the control linkages have been attached to the swashplate, it will be necessary to check the swashplate to insure that it is level. To do this, turn on the radio system and place the collective stick in the center position as before. Next, check to make sure that all trim levers and knobs are also in their center position. Check to insure that the servo arms are parallel to the servos as adjusted in the previous step. If the servos are not parallel, please refer to the sub-trim section 7-2 and readjust as necessary. Once it’s determined that the servo arms are parallel to the servos as required, it will now be necessary to check the swashplate to insure that it is also level or neutral in this position. It is suggested that the swashplate first be checked from the rear of the model to insure that it’s level from left to right. If the swashplate is not level as compared to the frame of the model, adjust either the left or right servo control rods as needed. To determine which rod needs adjustment, it may be helpful to view the swashplate from the left and right side view of the model to determine which side is high or low. Once this left to right adjustment is completed, it will now be necessary to check the fore/aft position of the swashplate to insure that it is also level on this axis. If the swashplate is not level in the fore/aft axis, it is suggested that the adjustment be made to the front servo control linkage as needed by slightly repositioning the elevator control arm on the elevator a-arm assembly, or adjusting both front servo control rods. If you are unsure as to which linkage needs adjustment or are having difficulty obtaining the correct adjustment, please check the length of each control rod to insure that it is adjusted to the correct length as outlined in Step 5-3.

Check to insure that the swashplate is level on the left/right axis.

Note:

If care was taken in the linkage assembly in Steps 4-6 and 7-3, little or no adjustment should be required in this step. Only minor adjustments should be made to the lengths of the control linkages at this time. Any major adjustments indicates either incorrect linkage lengths or incorrect servo arm positioning. If the control linkage lengths are altered from the recommended lengths more that one or two turns, this will have a great effect on the range and settings of the collective pitch in later steps.

Page 58

It is very possible that the travel of each servo varies slightly, which can cause the swashplate to be tilted to the left or right when the collective is moved to the extreme high and low pitch positions. This condition is generally more common when standard type servos are used. If JR®digital servos are used, the adjustment required is generally very small, if any. These variations in travel can be corrected by altering the travel value of each servo slightly through the travel adjustment function.

To check the pitch-to-aileron mixing, it will first be necessary to position the collective stick in the center position as in the previous steps. Next, move the collective stick from the center position to the high pitch position while viewing the swashplate from the rear of the model as shown in the diagram below. While moving the swashplate, look for any tendency for the swashplate to roll to the left or right as it reaches the high pitch position. Repeat this procedure several times to be sure that your observations are correct. If no rolling tendency is found, it will now be necessary to repeat this procedure from the center collective stick position to full low pitch. If no rolling tendency is found, proceed to Step 7-9.

In our example, we have shown that the swashplate has been tilted to the right as the collective has been increased to full pitch. This would indicate that the left servo’s maximum travel is greater than the right servo’s maximum travel.

In this condition, we suggest that the travel value for the left servo be reduced slightly (5–10%). Repeat the procedure above if the same condition occurs, but to a lesser degree. The travel value of the right servo should be increased slightly and retested. In most cases, it will require only the adjustment of the left or right servo to correct this situation.

View is shown from the rear of the model. Notice how the

swashplate has tilted to the right as the collective has moved

from center to full high pitch position.

The total travel of each servo can vary slightly, which can also cause the swashplate to be tilted fore and aft when the collective is moved to the extreme high and low pitch positions. This situation can also be corrected if necessary through the use of the travel adjustment function.

To check pitch-to-elevator mixing, it will first be necessary to position the collective stick in the center position as in the previous steps. Next, move the collective stick from the center to the high pitch position while viewing the swashplate from the left side of the model. While moving the swashplate, look for any tendencies for the swashplate to tilt fore or aft as it reaches the high pitch positions. Repeat this procedure several times to be sure that your observations are correct. If no fore or aft tilting tendencies are found, it will now be necessary to repeat this procedure from the center collective stick position to full low pitch. If no tilting tendency is found, proceed to the next step.

In our example, we have shown that the swashplate has tilted forward as the collective has been increased to full high pitch. This would indicate that the top servo’s maximum travel is more than that of the two left/right servos.

In this condition, we suggest that the travel value for the top servo be decreased slightly (5–10%). Repeat the above procedure and decrease the value as needed until the tilting tendency is eliminated. For information on the travel adjustment function, please refer to your radio’s instruction manual for details. Once this condition has been corrected, repeat this procedure for the center to low collective pitch position and adjust as needed.

Note: It is very important that during this step, only the travel value for the top servo (elevator) be adjusted to

correct any pitch-to-elevator tendencies. If the travel value of the left or right servo changes, this will affect the pitch-to-aileron tendencies corrected in the previous step. If you feel that readjustment of the left and right servo travel is necessary, then it is suggested that the travel for each servo be increased or decreased at the same amount and the pitch-to-aileron procedure be retested.

View is shown from the left side of the model. Notice how the swashplate has tilted forward as the collective has moved from the center to the full high pitch position.

Now that the radio system is completely installed into the helicopter, it’s necessary to check and adjust the following:

1. Servo Direction (Servo Reversing)

Check to insure that all servos have been set to the correct direction as shown in the Control Linkage Installation section.

2. Dual Rates

It’s suggested that for initial flights, the dual rate function values be set as follows:

0 Position (low rate) 90% 1 Position (high rate) 100%

3. Exponential Settings

It’s suggested that the exponential rate settings remain in the 0 value position until the initial test flights. After initial flights, adjust the exponential values to achieve the desired control feel.

4. Sub-Trim Settings

It’s suggested that the correct neutral settings be achieved without the use of the Sub-Trim function, as this will affect the neutral position of the servos. Adjust the cyclic trim using the control rods until a neutral hover is achieved.

5. Pitch/Throttle Curve Adjustment

It is very important the throttle and pitch curves are adjusted properly to achieve the best performance from your helicopter. When properly adjusted, the main rotor head rpm should remain consistent throughout all maneuvers and throttle stick positions. Aconstant rpm will also help to improve the effectiveness and accuracy of the tail rotor and gyro systems.

A) Pitch Curve

It will now be necessary to establish the maximum pitch value required for your application prior to adjustment. For example, if you are a 3D pilot, then your maximum negative pitch will be -10, and your maximum positive pitch will be +11. The maximum pitch range that you will require will be 21° total.

The maximum pitch range mentioned above must be established through the use of the pitch travel value in the CCPM function. As mentioned previously, do not try to establish the maximum pitch curve values through adjustment of the travel adjustment function, as this will alter the pitch-to-aileron and pitch-to-elevator travel values established in Steps 7-8 and 7-9. Please refer to the CCPM activation section (page 46) for information on how to access the CCPM function.

Once the CCPM function has been activated, set the maximum positive pitch settings as mentioned above. Since the CCPM function does not allow for independent travel settings for positive and negative pitch, it will be necessary to establish the maximum positive pitch, since this is generally the largest degree of pitch in the pitch range. Once the maximum positive pitch range is set, the maximum negative pitch range can be reduced as needed through the pitch curve function.

Set the main rotor pitch gauge to the desired maximum pitch setting, then increase or decrease the CCPM pitch travel (labeled Pitch or Ch6) as needed until this pitch setting is achieved.

Once this procedure has been completed, the positive and negative pitch settings for each flight mode can be adjusted through the radio’s pitch curve function. Please refer to your radio’s instruction manual for more information.

FINAL SERVO ADJUSTMENT AND RADIO SETUP (CONTINUED)

It will also be necessary to set the correct idle speed of the engine when the throttle hold function is activated.

This idle value is located within the throttle hold function. This will allow the engine to remain at idle when practicing autorotations.

6. Revolution Mixing (Non-Tail Lock/Heading Lock Gyros)

It will be necessary to adjust the revolution mixing to properly compensate for the torque of the engine during all flight conditions (except autorotation) if an on tail lock/heading lock gyros is used.

Since there are many variables that can alter the value of the revolution mixing (engine, blade pitch, fuel, etc.), it will be necessary to fine tune this function during test flights.

The following values are shown only as a starting point toward achieving proper compensation:

Flight Mode N Flight Mode 1 Flight Mode 2 (3D)

Up 40 Up 15 Up 15

Down 20 Down 10 Down 15

7. Gyro Gain Adjustment (All Gyros)

It will be necessary to adjust the “gain” or compensation of the gyro to create the correct amount of “holding power” necessary for a solid

neutral tail rotor. The intent of the gyro is to compensate for abrupt movements, or wind direction changes, working in conjunction with the Revolution Mixing Function (non-heading lock gyros).

For hovering, it’s recommended that you start with the gyro gain at approximately 80° and continue to increase slightly until the tail of the helicopter “hunts,” then reduce the value slightly.

This same adjustment will also be necessary to achieve proper forward flight. Generally, the gyro gain for forward flight will be approximately 10% – 20% less than that of the established hover gain due to aerodynamic forces present in forward flight. This variance depends greatly on the specific gyro used.

If you are using a dual rate gyro, adjust the gain so you are using the “higher” gain setting for hover and the “lower” gain setting for forward flight.

Gyro Direction

It will also be necessary to confirm the direction the gyro compensates when the body of the helicopter is rotated.

To do this, turn the radio system on and suspend the helicopter by the main rotor head. Next, move the rudder stick to the right and watch the direction that the tail rotor servo arm travels. Now while watching the tail rotor servo arm, rotate the body of the helicopter counterclockwise. The servo arm should move in the same direction as when the rudder stick was moved to the left.

If the arm moves in the opposite direction, reverse the gyro and re-test.

the pitch curve examples show in Step 5 on the previous page.

CANOPY PREPARATION AND PAINTING

Before sanding or painting the canopy, it is first suggested that the canopy be cleaned using Lacquer thinner, or rubbing alcohol to remove any mold release agent that may still be present on the canopy. Lightly sand the entire canopy using 180 to 220 grit sandpaper or "Scotchbrite" sanding material so that all areas of the canopy have a dull appearance. Clean the canopy again using rubbing alcohol to remove all sanding dust. Apply a coating of primer to the canopy. Many modelers use a lacquer based automotive primer available in most automotive supply stores. Once the primer dries, check the canopy for any pinholes that may exist. These pinholes can be spot filled using either an automotive "Glazing" putty, or a special pinhole filler like BVM (Bob Violett Models) BVM1925 pinhole filler. Sand the spot filler and apply a fresh coat of primer. Repeat the filling procedure as needed until all of the pinholes have been filled. Clean the canopy again to remove any sanding dust and apply your favorite brand of Fuel Proof paint. Many pilots also use an automotive based paint for color coats, although the automotive paint will need to be sealed using a fuel proof clear coat. For a quick and attractive paint job, Goldberg Ultra Paint will also work well and is fuel proof for up to 15% nitro (direct fuel contact). Once the canopy has been painted to the desired finish, apply the decals to the canopy as shown in the following pages.

Once all assemblies have been completed, please review the following suggestions before attempting initial flights.

• Review the instruction book and confirm that all assembly steps have been completed thoroughly.

• Check to insure that all servos are operating smoothly and in the correct direction. Also verify that there is no binding in the control rods and that each servo horn is secured with a servo horn mounting screw.

• Check to insure that all bolts and screws have been completely tightened and secured with threadlock where indicated.

• Verify that the gyro is operational and compensating in the correct direction (detailed in Section 7, page 61).

• Make sure that both the transmitter and receiver have been fully charged (refer to your radio system instructions for proper charging procedures).

• Check to insure that the throttle is working properly and in the correct direction.

FINAL PREFLIGHT CHECK

BLADE TRACKING IDENTIFICATION

A: Use two different blade tracking tape colors (e.g., black and red) at

the tip of each main rotor blade.

B: Use the same color blade tracking tape located at different positions

on each rotor blade.

Note: Adding additional blade tracking tape to the rotor blades at this stage

will make it necessary to re-static balance the main rotor blades.

Blade Labeling for Tracking Purposes

BLADE TRACKING ADJUSTMENT

Blade “tracking” is an adjustment to the main rotor blade pitch that must be accomplished during the initial test flights.

Although the blade pitch angle in each blade may appear equal, it is still possible for a set of main rotor blades to run “out of track,” making adjustment necessary.

Main rotor blades that are out of track with one another can cause vibration, instability, and a loss of power due to additional drag.

On the initial flight, it will be necessary to increase the blade speed to just before

lift-off rpm and view the rotor disc at eye level from a safe distance (approximately 15 to 20 feet).

Note which blade is running low (by colored tracking tape) and increase the pitch of the low blade one turn of the ball link at a time until each blade runs in track (on the same plane).

Please refer to the diagrams below to identify the different tracking situations, as well as several methods to mark each rotor blade for tracking identification.

Incorrect

Out of Track

Correct

In Track

Caution: Be sure to maintain a safe distance from the helicopter

(15 to 20 feet) when tracking main rotor blades.

Adjustment is necessary.

Red

Black

Red Red

Rotate the main rotor counter clockwise (backward) and note the rotation of the tail rotor.

Correct Main/Tail Rotor Rotation Direction

Adjustment is not necessary.

Engine

After each day of flying, fully drain the fuel tank. Then start the engine and let it idle until the engine and the fuel line are completely burned off. It is also suggested that an after-run oil be used to prevent premature engine corrosion.

Check All Nuts and Bolts

A helicopter is subject to high vibration during flight. It is important to check that all screws, nuts and bolts are properly secured after each day of flying. It is also suggested that you perform a “quick” inspection between each initial test flight for approximately the first 6 to 10 flights.

Main Rotor Head

It will be necessary for the main rotor head dampners to be checked/and or replaced every 30–50 flights to maintain maximum rotor head performance. When replacing the main rotor head dampners, apply a light coating of oil to the dampners to prolong life.

It is also suggested at this time that the rotor head thrust bearings be lubricated using a high speed grease. This will prolong the visibility of the thrust bearings.

Tail Gear Case

The tail gear case should be repacked with grease every 50 or so flights. the tail pitch slider and mechanism should be oiled lightly every 5–10 flights to help reduce wear.

Washout Base

Lubricate the washout base using light oil every 10–15 flights to insure smooth operating and reduce wear. Inspect the washout base every 50–75 flights. If excess wear is noted, replace as needed.

Tail Pitch Slider

Lubricate the tail pitch slider using light oil every 5–10 flights to insure

smooth operation and reduce wear.

Check Ball Link Wear

Check to insure that all universal links fit freely but securely to the control balls. If there is excessive play noted, adjust and or replace the universal link in question.

Battery Maintenance

Check to insure that your batteries are properly mounted and charged. The most frequent cause of crashes (aside from pilot error) is battery failure or disconnection. Be certain that your batteries are fully charged and limit your flight time to 3 or 4 flights between charging. If more flight time is required, purchase a reliable quick field charger.

Cleaning

At the end of each flight or flying session, wipe down your helicopter with a clean towel or rag. This is also a good time to inspect all parts for tightness or fatigue. Remember, a clean, well-maintained helicopter will provide you with many hours of trouble-free flight.

Ball Links

Check ball links every 15–20 flights for increased play and looseness. Adjust the ball links using plyers to tighten the ball race if needed.
