A few tips from a friend:
Apart from the nuts securing the rubber silent blocks, Loctite thread Locker or equivalent should be applied on all
screws and nuts before tightening. This kind of nut with nylon ring must be used only once and have to be replaced if
taken out.
Torqueing norms for the airframe are:
-6mm screws 1kgm
-8mm screws 2,5kgm
Except screws going through tubes, in this cases, just torque to apply surfaces in contact and take care to
never put the tubes out of shape.
For the engine, refer to the manufacturer’s manual.
References to the parts are of two kinds:
with three digits, they refer to a pre-assembled unit
ex:
211
main axle
with six digits, they refer to a sub-unit
ex:
211.186
mounting strap for gear leg
Screws, pins and axles fitted vertically are installed with their heads up
those fitted horizontally, parallel to the keel axis are installed from front to back (head forward).
refer to the drawing sheets to visualize the stages of assembly.
