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.
