Open only the bag Also, a fuel filter available from any hobby 3 BK shop, TTR should be placed between the fuel tank and the carburetor. Page 6 3 Main Frame Assembly-Part1 Please insert the frame spacers, bearings, pulley and parts in the frames according the drawing below.
Tighten the screws snugly, but do not over torque them which could strip the plastic. Insert starter shaft through the center of the clutch bell assembly, through the top starter shaft bearing and into the starter coupling. Attach the linkage rod to the parallel elevator linkage balls.
Page 9 7 Main Frame Assembly-Part3 Insert Main Shaft through the shaft bearings making sure that the end with the holes closest to the end is pointed down. Next, slide main gear assembly into position on the shaft and line up the holes in the main shaft with the holes in one way clutch shaft of the main gear assembly. Page Engine Assembly 9 Engine Assembly Note: A piston lock purchased from your dealer will make this a much easier task.
When screwing on the flybar paddles to the flybar, stop when you can see the rod in the window of the paddle. Then, lay the assembly on a flat surface and align the paddles so they are exactly parallel. Page 12 12 Main Frame Assembly-Part5 Slide the main Rotor assembly over the main shaft and align the two pins to slide in the washout assembly.
Make sure the holes in the main shaft line up with the holes in the main rotor head. Insert the socket screw and secure with locknut. Then slide the tail linkage rod into the rod guides. Next, insert the tail rotor drive belt into the boom so that it comes out of both ends. Place drive belt over tail drive pulley and complete balance of tail boom assembly. Page 14 16 Servo Installation-Part1 Assembly Tip: Remove all the servo wheels prior to attaching the steel linkage balls.
Make sure all linkages are the correct length. Page 15 17 Servo Installation-Part2 Assembly Tip: Remove all the servo wheels prior to attaching the steel linkage balls. Neatness counts, so take your time. The three different scales are designed for beginner, intermediate or expert F3C and 3D pilots. Page 20 10mm The above pushrod lengths will permit 3D with the Raptor.
Use these lengths as a starting point. Beginners can also use those pushrod lengths, but just connect the collective control to the outside point on the pitch control arm. Pushrod lengths are measured from ball link center to ball link center. Page 21 Engine Throttle Control Linkage Mount the steel linkage ball to the outer hole on the metal throttle arm. At full throttle stick, the carburetor hole should open completely. At low throttle and with the throttle trim all the way down, the carburetor hole should close completely.
Page Preflight Adjustments Preflight Adjustments Relationship between the control motion and radio transmitter. Always check all the controls to make sure they move in the correct direction and there is no mechanical binding or noise from the servos.
Page 24 Preflight Checklist and Starting Procedure 1 Check to make sure there is no radio interfence before operating the model helicopter. Range check the radio. Page 25 Flying Adjustments 1 Tracking adjustment When the two main rotor blades are in track it means their blade tips should follow the same path as they rotate. Stand about 15 feet 4 meters alway from the helicopter. Page 26 Flying Adjustments 2 Trimming: All helicopters are inherently unstable.
But when a helicopter is properly trimmed, it will not drift away or yaw by itself quickly. Use the following procedure to trim your helicopter. Page 27 Hover Training 1 Hovering is when the helicopter is floating in a stationary position in the air.
Hovering is the fundamental manuever to learn first. Here is the procedure to practice hovering: 1 Make sure there are no spectators anywhere near the model helicopter. Page 28 Hover Training 2 1 It will take a few hours of hover practice with the helicopter skids at 10 to 20 cm inches off the ground in order to comfortably control the model.
Do not try to lift the model to more than 10 to 20 cm inches in the beginning because then the model may tip over readily when the beginner panics and an incorrect command is given. Page 29 Forward Flight Training After mastering hovering flight: 1 Start practicing moving the helicopter laterally to the left or right slowly from a 1.
This is the beginning exercise of translational flight. Page 31 After Flight Checklist 1 Check every screw and bolt to make sure none has loosened due to vibration. Page 32 In the event the model has crashed. Inspect the flybar, rotor shaft and the blade spindle to make sure they are not bent at all. If any item is damaged, it must be replaced with a new part to ensure safe operation.
Do not glue any broken or damaged plastic part. Page 33 Changing the tail drive belt: 1 Loosen and remove all the necessary screws. Changing the flybar: 1 Loosen or remove the M3x10 set screws. Page 34 Changing tail rotor shaft: 1. Remove the tail rotor gear box from the tail boom. Take apart the blade grips and remove or loosen the M3x18 set screws.
Remove the tail rotor hub. Pull out the tail rotor shaft. Page 35 6. The manuals contain all manual pages including the parts list and a nice front page. Thanks to BimmerM3 www. Also thanks to ace for providing a large part of the manual in pdf format ace hobby site. Errata Pagenumbers as shown on the page not the acrobat pagenumbers p. The improved Raptor 30 V1 manual 2.
There is a separate paper with instructions for the blades. I made some improvements to the acehobby V1 version: thumbnails for quick finding of the required page, removed numerous bullets spread over the pages, and corrected alignment errors.
Also I added the part lists and numbers. Many thanks to the ace hobby site that made available an even higher-quality manual, but much larger 14Mb and with numerous typesetting errors.
The manual disappeared quickly from their site, I don't know why but it might be that most of you like the smaller version available on my site instead. The V1 version also contains the separate leaflets on blade modification and link length settings.
Addition to the thrust bearing assembly on p. The ball holder should be with the plate with the holes towards the collar, to avoid damage to the bearing. This is also the alignment as it comes new in the package. If you put the hole plate towards the blades, during flight the plate will be pressed to the outer scale by centrifugal force.
