E-flite T-34 Mentor 25e ARF Assembly Manual

2. Attach the nylon steering arm to the nose gear

wire. Insert the bend in the wire through the middle

hole of the steering arm.

3. Position the steering arm in the nose gear

mount. Make sure the hole for the screw in the arm

faces forward so the nose gear can be installed.

4. The nose gear assembly has a flat area where

the screw in the steering arm will rest. Make sure

this faces forward when the nose gear assembly is

installed.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

5. Slide the nose gear assembly though the nose

gear mount and steering arm. Use a 3mm x

8mm socket head screw to secure the nose gear

assembly. The screw is tightened on the flat area

indicated in Step 4 using a 2.5mm hex wrench or

ball driver.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

6. With the rudder servo centered, align the nose

wheel parallel to the fuselage center line. Use

a 3mm x 4mm machine screw and #1 Phillips

screwdriver to tighten the screw to secure the

pushrod wire in the brass connector.

If you find your model does not track straight on

the runway, you may need to re-center the nose

wheel. Do not use the rudder trim to correct a

tracking problem with your aircraft. The rudder

trim is used to trim the model in flight.
