steP 1B: iNstaLLiNG tHe MOtOr - KMs 2208/09 BrusHLess Or siMiLar
The KMS 2208/09 brushless motor features a rear-mounted propeller adapter and an aluminium radial mount that's compatible
with the predrilled holes in the motor mounting plate.
q
Install the propeller adapter and the radial motor mounting plate onto
your motor, using the screws provided with your motor.
IMPORTANT
Before test-fitting and mounting the motor in the next few procedures, make sure that you install the motor mounting
stick so that the motor is towards the
bottom
of the fuselage.
q
Slide the motor mounting stick assembly into the moulded channel in
the fuselage. When positioned properly, the back edge of the propeller
should be 2mm (4-3/4") in front of the front of the fuselage.
IMPORTANT
You may need to cut the motor mounting stick shorter to
achieve the correct fit.
q
Install the motor assembly onto the end of the motor mounting stick, using
two small wood screws (not included).
PRO TIP
After flying the aircraft, you may want to add right and/or down
thrust to the motor. You can do this by trimming the mounting end of the
stick at a slight angle. Please see page 9 for more information.
